I say go for it. There's a reason why they make them in 6 and even 5cm lengths after all. If you look at bicycles throughout history, 6 or even down to 4cm stems are not uncommon, even among racing machines of former eras. There are even zero offset stems. I call bullshit on so-called "short" stems adversely affecting handling. First of all, I doubt you'll notice any difference, other than perhaps being more comfortable. Secondly, you can get used to almost any change in handling, even if you *do* feel a difference (you won't).
