Stem Ritchey Forcelite or what?

Hello,

I bought stem that looks like Ritechy Forcelite, but there are some clearly noticable differences and so I'm not sure what it realy is...

It has 219 grams, and it's cr-mo (at least this is what I know from the seller).

Any ideas?

To me it looks like Rithecy and I think maybe someone has done some tuning to make it lighter few grams?

What do you think?

If you need more pics I will.
 
Hello

Pretty sure it is not a forcelite stem. The heads of the bolts at the steeer end should sit in counter bores with a forcelite stem though in the pic you might have bolts with larger heads which dont fit in the counter bores. Also.. the metalwork for the bar clamp bolt is sculpted on a forcelite. There are loads of stems that look much the same with various decals like saracen for example. They are all much the same weight and do a fine job. At least you have one that doesnt appear to have rust spots. On my phone anyway.
