Title says it all -- seeking advice regarding pairing up a Ritchey Adjustable Stem with a Carbon Fiber flatbar.
The flatbar can be found here:
http://www.amazon.com/LVWA-600mm-HB011L-Carbon-Handlebar/dp/B00T6PUTKQ/
I have read some horror stories regarding carbon fiber handlebars (and parts in general), and I know that the Ritchey documentation seems to indicate that you should always use something that is "carbon compatible", of which the manual for the Ritchey Adjustable Stem does not really specify compatibility either way.
What is your experience with carbon flatbars?
