  • How would the following differ ?

    BMC Streetracer '57' - Stack 57.4cm, Reach 39.5cm
    Cannondale CAAD8 '58' - Stack 59.2, Reach 39.5
    Merckx AMX5 '56' - Stack 58.9, Reach 38.3

    Assuming a 11cm x -10° stem and 5mm spacer on the BMC, then

    CAAD8 11cm x -17° stem and no spacer will drop the bar 1mm

    AMX5 12cm x -17° stem and no spacer will raise the bar 1mm

    In both cases, the reach to the bar will also change by 1mm.
    In other words, you could probably make any of them fit with a stem in the normal range.
