Thats funny considering burgard sells 400ex stems as his 450R ones.


Im sure they will bolt up, but I never understood them being close in heigh, because the 450R stem is a lot more layed back than the 400ex one which is more vertical, but they definitely sell them like that, because anyone with a burgard stem on their 450R has had to get 400ex stabilizer mounts to make it work on their stem. I also believe that the stem bushing up top needs to be a different size (the 400ex size) and I think the 450R burgard stems come with the 400ex stem bushing to make it work. I know others have done this, maybe somone else will chime in.

batavia... I say if you have both, try it out and let us know how it works, Im in the market for a new stem, and would definitely find that information useful!
