Your stem is too short

[beaker]

@Blakey

Noone said anything about slamming.

It’s all about the reach.

And who cares about Kashekin’s(190mm custom from FSA IIRC) stem, check out Adam Hansen’s 105g DIY carbon shoes!

Whoa!

[HeavyMetalCyclist]

that 160 is so god damn hot.

god damn! I wonder if I contacted FSA they would make me a cool stem.

[whatever_really]

Just stupid, you would be looking backwards to see your front wheel.

@dayne

you would look like a mad dog with this long bicycle stem.

i agree!

You own a pair?

[HeavyMetalCyclist]

[horatio]

@HeavyMetalCyclist

no

Oh, I could see you in them.

[whatever_really]

I’m guessing its not just short legs but the head tube is to long.
To get around this some people run a smaller frame with shit loads of post and a huge stem

My main beef with bikes these days. I understand it’s more feasible for a company to make bikes in only four or five sizes, but I don’t want to ride a Venge or an R3 because particularly in smaller sizes, compact geometry looks unsightly.
Like this:

Almost saddle to bar raise. So gross. May as well ride this

ps ride what’s comfortable for you and no hate pls

[Lemontime]

Currently running a 50mm stem with tiny rizors. Wouldn’t go longer, either.

In the 56 Cervelo it has a 179 ht, The specialized tarmac nd venge have a 160mm,

Im never fussed as i cant run a big drop, but i feel for those that like too.
A mate had a s5 and had to run a slammed 140 negative 17.

[generic_hipster]

Had a look at bike radar, Cav has 8cm of saddle to bar drop. Someone should tell him that his set up is not pro enough.

[Lorday]

Even I have more saddle to bar drop them him and I have the legs of a midget! I should turn pro.
