In that case yeah I think that's the right decision. I have a bike with a 90mm stem and another with a 130mm (both setup with same contact point distances) and find it takes about 10 seconds to readjust to the handling between the bikes. And people on mountain bikes ride around with 50mm stem's so I'm sure 80mm will be just fine.

The KOPS method is widely debated so I'll try to see if it works for me. Thinking about a 3T Dorico and I'll maybe even try an SMP since Scoble is so positive about it and because of the long saddle rails. Should give me something to play with.
@Hovis I'm not sure.
The only problem about the 55 seems to be the slightly too long TT. If I get the 53 I'll need lots of spacers and a positive rise stem and a longer seatpost. I'm probably going for the 55 and live with the chode stem.
