I'm feeling a bit too stretched out on my new rando bike with noodles. It currently has a 110cm stem, and the bars are a good 2 or 3 cms below saddle height. Can't raise the stem, it's a custom job and doesn't have any room for extenstion. At least not that I feel comfortable with. Since it's handmade, there's no max height line...
As I set out to buy a new stem, I'm wondering, how much shorter do I go on the stem if I plan to raise the bars to saddle height as well? I'm sure it's dependent on HA & SA, but I'm wondering if there is a ballpark ratio which says that raising your stem 1 cm is the same effect as shortening it by X. Any real world experience to help me out? When you feel too stretched out, do you focus on raising the bars or shortening the stem? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
