Ive just got a 120mm 7° stem to replace the 130mm 10°. Went out today on it and it was perfect. Amazing what a difference a cm can make. Did the c2c two weeks ago and long days waiting for people at the top of climbs = back pain.
Pic fail. Added now..
I'm 130mm -17 quite surprised I lasted the weekend. But as I did it, only makes sense to lower it a tad. I'm only going to get more flexible. I hope.
Glad I stuck the 11-32 on the back after all for the ride. I would have blown up otherwise.
I found it fine on the flat but on those long c2c climbs not being able to sit upright took its toll.
