A long stem will make most of your body go into a turn. A shorter stem uses more of just your arms, it will feel like "quicker" steering. Im using a WCS stem, thats 100mm long with a 6 deg rise. I find htis to be very comfortable, a good balance all together. 120 seems long for me, especially on the frame i already have
