if you're talking to me in regards to my straggler, i've got 6" of thomson post showing, and 30mm of spacer stack underneath my 6 degree 100mm long stem. surlys are know for their super short headtubes, so 30mm of spacers is actually pretty low in the surly world.
if you weren't referencing me, then carry on!
