Since I have been riding more off road and reading a little about dirt drops I feel like I have my set up all wrong. Apparently mine is too much like my road bikes with the exception that the reach is a little short.

I could buy a steep rise stem but I can't help feeling like I will have too much weight on my hands with so little reach. My bike also has older slack MTB geometry and the top tube isn't so long compared to seat tube. I also ride to the trails so what may be best for the dirt may not help me on the ride there.
