Bar position plot for different stems...
Folks,
I put together a simple spreadsheet to show relative changes in bar position for different stem lengths, angles, and spacers. It was driving me crazy trying to visualize how a particular stem would change the bar position. I hope you find it useful.

Nice! I did not account for the head tube angle, but plot the positions relative to each other using the head tube as a reference.

I was using this chart, but the interactive sites shown above are better.
