Picked up a Kabrio HT helmet from Dotout. Anyone familiar with this brand? It was on sale for $120 so I figured I'll give it a try, so far so good.

I loved my old K-Wing bars. They weren't very stiff when sprinting, but very comfortable and durable.
Not a fan of Thomson X-2 or X-4 stems. I cracked 2 X-4 stems at the 12 o'clock point where it clamps the steerer tube. Thomson replaced the first one, but after it happened again on the replacement, I lost confidence in that model. I wish the still sold Thomson Elite stems.

What model is that?
It doesn't look like what I just purchased. Is it an older model?
The X2 installation instructions say to leave 3mm of steerer protruding through the top. The picture above looks like the top might have squeezed down on the open end of the steerer tube a bit and hence the crack. I wonder if the instructions that came with the cracked stem have this same requirement.

Ftr, my stems both cracked on the other side of the steerer tube, and they were installed as specified by Thomson.

It's from the mountain bike.
The problem was not the installation, but the repeated crashes.
