Ha, I bought two pieces of aluminum tubing and painted them. It was way more cost effective than buying a zillion spacers. Notice the red harlequin diamonds (http://bit.ly/1rR0uC) on the first bike? Home grown....

Yes, it's a PIA trying to fit myself on frames meant for all those stumpy legged, orangutan armed men. I have a whole spare parts bin full of various stems and spacers.

I think the pix are too lame to show it but that's a Terry Butterfly on the first bike. I have a love/hate relationship with it, but it's definitely better than any skinny saddle.

The things we do to ride....
