Will a long stem with swept back bars handle the same as a short stem with straight bars?
A friend has achieved an upright position by using an adjustable stem at near vertical. I rode the bike and the steering was very twitchy. Would positioning the stem more horizontal then adding some swept back risers (to achieve roughly the same hand position) change the feel of the steering?
