After more than FIVE YEARS of design and testing we are very proud to release
---the 2hip GROOVETECH Steering System---
With the 2hip GROOVETECH Steering System your bars
WILL NEVER MOVE AGAIN IN ANY DIRECTION
The GROOVETECH Steering System is a system designed by 2hip and ronw., and perfected thru more than FIVE YEARS of development and research. Using the finest materials available and precision craftsmanship, we have produced extremely light parts utilizing the GROOVETECH system in which your bars will never move again—IN ANY DIRECTION—
Having your bars never moving again is amazing, but just as good as that feature, the GROOVETECH Steering System completely locks your stem in place and stiffens up the entire front end of your bike, eliminating the customary flex that exists with the standard systems currently used today.
Riding your bike now, compared to riding it with the GROOVETECH Steering System, is like running your tires 20 lbs. underinflated... You'll see...AND...your bars will never move again—
And you know what THAT means: less flex, more responsiveness. Which translates to more speed, which translates to more control, which translates to more AIR.
There are 4 steps in settingup your GROOVETECH System:
Step 1
There are grooves machined into each side of the forks that much up with tabs built into the GROOVETECH stem.
Your bars will never move from side-to-side again.
Step 2
The are two GROOVETECH SHIMS (available in MANY colours!) that fit over the clamp area of the GROOVETECH COMPATIBLE bars.
One of the shims has two pegs that fit inside two holes in the bars, so the shims cannot move. The Splines on the outside of the shims interlock with the splines inside the GROOVETECH COMPATIBLE stem, so your bars will never move front to back.
Step 3
We have produced two types of GROOVETECH stems, the 'FATE' stem and the 'HALFWAY' stem. The 'FATE' stem utilizes the entire GROOVETECH bars and forks system, and the 'HALFWAY' stem utilizes only the GROOVETECH fork.
For those that like to use special geometry bars that we have not produced GROOVETECH bars for...yet.
Step 4
You figure this part out yourself...
