I took the stem out to check, and it turns out I did cut it down, as shown. Probably took a few cm off it as you can see - that was previously the minimum insertion mark. I think there is enough length left to give you a couple of cm rise in addition to that shown in the picture of the complete bike.
I genuinely wasn’t sure if I had cut this particular stem - because I ride very small frames, I have done this to lots of stems with no problems. Of course if you need more rise, this might not suit, but it is perfectly fine for a slammed set up.

Potentially interested in the factory 5 stem, depending on if its been cut down
