Hey all, I'm thinking about getting a shorter stem as my bike is slightly to big for me and my stem is currently 100mm. Just looking for some opinions on running a shorter stem on a XC bike. Opinions on a 90mm/80mm/70mm stem on a XC hard tail?
Also if anyone can be bothered, can you post your specs:
Bike: Yeti ARC
Size: Large
Rider height: 181cm
Effective top tube: 610mm
Stem length: 100mm
Handlebars: 1" rise 615mm
I am trying to solve my long term lower back pain after riding for >1 hour, despite good core body strength. I found a fantastic bike fitting spreadsheet that is telling me I should have a 76mm stem, which might explain my sore back. Here is the link to the spreadsheet for those interested:
