The 10cm stem that I started with is okay but feels confining in slow sharp turns (the close-maneuvering tactical kind). I intend to switch to a 12cm stem. I expect that'll probably make the bars even more comfortable in general. If I were using bar-end shifters, I'd probably try a 13cm or 14cm stem. RBW sells a 13cm stem. I've never seen a 14cm stem advertised; possibly because I've never looked for one. (I don't think I'll put bar-ends on the Boscos. Right now I have stem shifters. I like them.) Yours, Thomas Lynn Skean
