Ok, so I'm not oosing stem length. I'm choosing,but apparently I cannot edit the title. I'm still working out the math regarding stems, but I have a basic question regarding my 110mm stem:

If I feel as if I am reaching with the 110mm, and I feel more comfortable if I slide my hands about one inch back off the hoods, should I go with an 80mm (or maybe a 90mm) stem?

The simple math says that the 80 is 1.18" shorter and that's where I think I'll feel comfortable. My 110mm is a +/- 6 degrees. What really changes if I were to use a +/- 10 degree? Is an 80mm 10 degree going to feel simliar to a 90mm 6 degree? Do have that backwards or just plain wrong?
