We specially developed the C.I.S. design to provide a clean and aerodynamic cockpit while ensuring constantly seamless shifting and braking. As a result, C.I.S. provides the first functioning stem with internal cable routing for mechanical shifting.




Thanks to the C.I.S. technology all cables run integrated via the stem and headset into the frame.
All cables run from the handlebar into the stem and through the headset into the frame. For optimum shifting and braking quality, we have chosen a bending radius that allows smooth-running cables. Only this large bending radius permanently prevents shifting problems due to attrition. As a result, C.I.S. provides the first functioning stem with internal cable routing for mechanical shifting.
- Easy adjustable handlebar and brake lever position
- Rideable with no spacers for super low front end
- Mechanical shifting and dropper remote possible
We tried more than 50 designs
to balance integration and performance


Daniel Frintz, design engineer:
“We tried all different options as a cable entrance. The best solution was to place the cables over the handlebar. With that we can reach a big radius for the cables, to ensure that the mechanical shifting and the dropper post have low friction when you push the lever. We combined the construction with a modern and clean design.”
Makes your cockpit aerodynamic and aesthetic


The stem offers space for up to six cables. Thanks to a mounting point on the stem you can easily install a perfectly matching front light. With our split spacer system, you can change the height of your stem without big effort.
