Lyne AMP 35 Stem 50mm
What Is It?
The Lyne AMP 35 Stem (50mm) is a mountain bike stem designed to connect your handlebar to your fork steerer tube. It’s part of Lyne’s AMP cockpit range, built specifically for modern wide handlebars and trail MTB riding.
The “50mm” refers to the stem length, which gives a balanced mix of stability and steering control—more stretched than a 35mm stem, but still responsive for trail use.
