I ordered a 110mm Ritchey WCS 17/73 alloy stem in order to get a more aero cockpit. Today, when installing the new stem, i realized that I ordered the wrong size. When i got a bike fit, i was told that the stem is a 110mm stem (should have just taken the damn thing off & looked inside), but it happens that my old stem is actually a 100mm stem. So now, instead of just going from -8 to -17, i'm also increasing reach by 1cm.

All i have thus far is a 1 mile test ride on a crit course. I feel slightly stretched out in the drops, but pretty comfortable on the tops. What would you do if you were in my shoes?

If you have had stem length changes (going to a longer stem), I would love to hear your story.

Thanks in advance,

Jim
