Hey Scrod and the notscrod consortium,

This might be asking a bit much, but I'm trying to figure out what stem length to get for a 53cm 722 ts. I got all my measurements and I used the fit calculator on competitive cyclist, but I'm still having issues.

I'm between 5 8" and 5 9", 31" inseam. I know fit is subjective, but I'll take anything I can get. I'm currently running a 90mm Thomson X4 on a 2009 Raleigh that has a slightly different head tube angle, but comparing the frames side by side with the bb's and seat tubes/chain stays lined up, the 722 head tube sits about 1 cm ahead of the Raleigh. Should I just shoot for an 80 mm stem? Apologies if this is overkill on my part, thanks.
