what is your opinion on ahead adapters?
Aesthetically they look shit, function wise they work and can make finding the right setup a lot easier. Additionally going Q/A will allow modern O/S stem and bars (31.8) which will probably feel stiffer. Personally i think it would ruin the look but have a browse here for some inspiration

If the reach currently feels long then all the more reason to change the bars. You say the stem it too long but it looks bang on for that frame and you could probably shave 20mm reach of the bars.
Thanks for the idea, what is your opinion on ahead adapters? The reason I kept my cockpit the way it is is because of the Stronglight headset - I really like the looks of it and it is quite rare as far as I know?
