Roval Rapide Stem Cover Weight: Red Bull 3.7 g vs 4 Team Editions

The Roval Rapide integrated handlebar ships with four team-edition carbon stem covers, each featuring the livery of a WorldTour squad that races on the bar. The Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe cover (Team SD variant) is the pure carbon version at 3.7 g, while the Quick-Step and DFJ editions include TiNE titanium screws and weigh 5.9 g each. All four covers replace the stock alloy stem cap on the Rapide cockpit.

Roval Rapide Stem Cover Editions — Head to Head

Roval Rapide Stem Cover Editions — Head to Head
Quick-Step (Soudal Quick-Step): 5.9 g — Carbon cover + Ti screw
DFJ (Team DFJ): 5.9 g — Carbon cover + Ti screw
Red Bull (Red Bull-BORA): 3.7 g — Pure carbon cover
SD (Team SD Worx): 4.0 g — Pure carbon cover

Red Bull Edition Details

The Red Bull cover is the lightest of the four team editions at 3.7 g — a pure carbon fiber shell with no titanium screw included. The cover slides over the Rapide's stem cap area and is held in place by the stem's existing pinch bolt system. The Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe livery is printed directly on the carbon surface, matching the team bike's color scheme. Riders who want the complete titanium upgrade package should pair this carbon cover with a separate TiNE titanium stem bolt (sold separately).

Versus the stock alloy stem cap on the Rapide (roughly 10–12 g depending on bolt type), any of the four team-edition carbon covers saves 4–8 g at the cockpit. The Red Bull edition's 3.7 g is the best weight result if you're building a pure-light cockpit — but if you want the integrated Ti screw, the 5.9 g Quick-Step or DFJ editions deliver a complete package.

Which Edition to Choose

The choice comes down to two factors: team allegiance and screw preference. If you follow Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe, the Red Bull cover at 3.7 g is the obvious pick. If you want a titanium screw included in the package rather than buying one separately, the Quick-Step or DFJ editions at 5.9 g each are the better value. SD Worx fans get the 4.0 g cover — pure carbon, no Ti screw, but slightly heavier than Red Bull due to a different surface finish process.
