I’m considering a San Marcos in 54 cm. I would get a Nitto Tallux Stem. I know that my saddle height is around 73 cm and that the San Marcos head tube is 6 cm above the seat tube. Given that, I’m trying to determine how far above and below my saddle height I could put the handlebars.
The Nitto Tallux Stem has a 225mm quill. I read somewhere that the minimum insertion point gives you a maximum 16 cm extension. So my question is, what is the MINIMUM extension if you slam the stem all the way down? I don’t plan to do this in normal practice because it would look dorky and I prefer an upright position anyway. But I might consider temporally slamming the stem if I got caught in a bad headwind for an extended period of time on a long ride.
