Stiffest may be a carbon one. Shimano Cavendish stem or the Zipp 145 (which Cav is using now)

I also have a Deda Zero in a 140 but it is nowhere near as stiff

If cost were no object the Pro Vibe or Zipp SL145 would be the no brainer solution. But, it's a decade old bike I'm trying to eak a little more time out of before I buy the next "last bike". So, carbon is not in the upgrade budget.
