• I can easily hit the drops with my knees on a 140mm stem. Can't say about short people but for lanky mutants that climb out of the saddle it's definitely a problem

  • I'm only 187cm but have long thighs and have never done that with 130mm stems. Nipped my knees on the back of the stem once or twice though but never on a road bike. They look shit however and I can't solo for toffee so I wont be buying a pair anyway....
