View Full Version : Cannondale Prophet Min Stem Length

Does anyone know the minimum stem length I can go on a Cannondale Prophet without the bars hitting the top of the Lefty Fork (I'ts currently spec'd with oversize bars as well). I know that Cannondale has a 80mm stem but there are some after market 1.5 stems that will fit and the one I would like to put on is 60mm 10 degree rise. From the look of it, it may hit the rebound adjustment knob located on the top of the fork but that's just eyeing it out. I don't want to go through the trouble of ordering the stem if it's not going to fit.

Thanks

I have two riser stems, 30mm length. One has rise of 10 degrees, the other 45degrees. Stem riser height comes into it as well so, short high rise stem, or even putting spacers under the stem may work.
