Rollin, I don't have the old stem since the shop kept it in the swap, so even if I can measure this new one, I can't tell you how much it differs from the old. Trek 520s come with a 17 degree stem, but this is the second time mine has been switched.
But what's more important to me is that the adjustment put the handlebars even in height with the seat, and at a distance equal to the length between my elbow and fingertip. I don't know it those proportions are universal, but they sure have worked in my case.
