@eeehhhh
here's a question for you all... i can't find much of an answer online.
you know on your stem you have the two clamp bits on either end? i.e. one for bars, one for the tube of the forks.
well, the bit that clamps onto the fork's tube - are they always the same height (not diameter)? I find my stem at the moment a bit too long, and i'm putting a lot of weight on my hands and it hurts after 30min+, so just buy a shorter stem that fits the same diameter tube/bars, and it'll be ok?
I haven't got any spacers on the steerer tube, so it'll have to fit perfectly otherwise the aheadset cap thing won't fit properly.
ta!
