(The dale stems are 6 deg.)
It's weird...do an image search for CAAD10 and some of them with 17 deg stems look great...and some look like the front end is drooping (like the evo you posted).
I suspect the smaller sizes look better with 17.
Howard-
I suspect that it's due to the top tube angle staying relatively similar but the head tube angle decreasing for smaller sizes meaning the stem gets brought up and becomes less droopy

Mines -17, and a 48cm as below:
I think it works well with a -10, not much choice, this is with a Pro stem:

My old colleague found that the -12 Bontrager stem is a perfect angle on the CAAD10, match the slop quite well (BTW the red is BRIGHT, Picture really doesn't do justice at how bright it is).

-6 looks better, but -17 doesn't look too bad, gives quite an aggressive look
