Stem cell bags and fancy bells were basically built to cover ugly stems, it's all good.
The woodchipper drop is 114mm, I can get that to 30mm lower than my current hoods with the 35deg stem, which seems reasonable enough.
Given that a new fork is in the works at some point, another spacer here or there and it could all come together nicely.
As ever this is being trickle-funded so it's all idle pondering until the part of my bank account marked 'bike bits' refills after the wheelset+tyres+guards hit

With dirt drops I personally don’t think a 35 degrees stem look too bad. It’s a part of the whole package, so wouldn’t worry about it.
