Technically speaking, if you only adjust your saddle-to-bar length by placing the bars higher and further backwards you change the bicycle's centre of mass rearwards. To compensate you should adjust the saddle position forwards and upwards as much as is comfortable. This puts you even more up-right, so be sure your stem is tall enough that you don't feel like you're digging for clams.

The reach and stack of a frame never change.
