• The headclip stem I have got won't let the handlebars slide in. This is, however, a tad too long for my fork steerer? and too short as a stem :/
    And it doesn't really make sense to have the track stem albeit it looks amazing.

  • The headclip stems have a smaller diameter than later bars.

    The shaft on that stem could be cut if needed but the reach could still be too short for you.

    You can always use a standard 1" stem of the length needed until you find a head clip of the same length.
    A shorter stem, assuming it is not too short for you, would give you a more upright cycling position.
