I've always been told my legs are really stumpy. I think I look stumpy, but that could be because everyone is telling me they are.

My legs are almost at full extension with my current setup. Maybe I could raise it a cm or two, but it's close as it is.

I tried sanding some of the rust, but then I noticed something. I decided to actually test how far in it is at the moment (duh!).

It turns out that it's practically all the way in. I think the hole is slightly tapered so the stem doesn't fall through whilst riding, severely damaging someone. That's why I can't see any blockage- there isn't one because it's tapered!

That's my theory at least.

I'm going to leave it as it is for now. Just out of interest, what frame is that stem meant for?
