Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

LBS building my Soloist this week

My (new/unused) Anodised Black Soloist is being built by my LBS this week. Components include

Ultergra SL

Hand built wheels by Derek the Wheelsmith
IRD cadence road front 24h and rear 28h rims, black
PMP pro road hubs, Shimano 9/10sp black
Sapim CX-Rays black with Polyax nipples

Ergosum team carbon handlebar

3T ARX Team alloy oversized road stem black
Trigel Elite Ti saddle
Michelin Pro 3 Race road tyre

The stem is a Wolf CL (yes CL, it came with the frame). Can you recommend a better stem?

PS: Not sure if this makes any differnce but frame is 51cm and I'm about 140lbs and will use the bike for training rides and the odd Triathlon
