Deity is a rider owned company that makes high-quality, well designed products with a metal style flavour. You can tell they are different. The company is different, and we like that. They do really care about the riders. You only need to check out their social media platforms to see how they support each of their team members and all the kids on their grassroots program. We do not think there are many more companies like them.<\/p>\n
We are currently in the United States, on our road to Rampage, so we have had the opportunity to get our hands on some Deity gear such as the CZ38 Special handlebar which is Cam Zink’s signature bar, the new Cavity 35mm stem and the Compound pedals.<\/p>\n
We will be testing their products the upcoming months and will make an extended article about them, but for now here is what we think so far after our first Dirt Jump session:<\/p>\n

The first thing we noticed about the CZ38 handlebar was how good looking it is in black with black polished graphics. Then after we put it on our bike, we felt the 38mm rise, 9.5 degree bend and 4.5 degree upsweep to be very comfortable. Its 760mm lenght is a little too much for us though, we are going to have it cut at 740mm as we are no longer riding with our hands at the very end of each side of the bar. It is way stiffer than our old bars, and we really like that, specially when we are using it for Dirt Jumping, you don’t want to jump on a floppy bar. We will see how it lasts during our long term test but it seems very promising.<\/p>\n
CZ38 SPECIAL HANDLEBAR SPECS.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00b7 Cameron Zink’s Signature handlebar. The Cavity 35 stem has been re-designed from its older version, the Cavity 50. Now it offers 35mm lenght instead of 50mm, so everyone that likes to ride short stems is covered. We have always liked and ridden short stems so getting our hands on this one is a truly honor for us.\u00a0 You can tell that Deity has put in a lot of work on it: clean rounded edges at all sides, reverse cross bolt system, tapered body and beautiful graphic details. We are very pleasant of what we have experienced so far and we are looking forward to spend more time on it.<\/p>\n CAVITY 35 STEM SPECS.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00b7 Machined from 6061 T6 aluminum. There are hundreds of compound pedals in the market, almost every brand makes them, and although they can look the same, they don’t feel the same. Deity mentions that the body of their Compound pedals is made of nylon fiber instead of polycarbonate, and that they have a double micro sealed bearing system so that could differentiate them from the rest. We love plastic pedals and have always ridden all different kinds but these could probably be the best ones yet. They are thin, lightweigth and offer the same grip as a traditional aluminum pedal. We can’t wait to spend hours and hours above them.<\/p>\n
