1) You can lower the headset by simply moving the spacers from under the headset to above the headset. Your bike looks very upright, and you'll immediately notice a lower stance.

2) You can flip the headset. Instead of the angle slanting up (towards the sky) it will be fairly flat (to the ground). This is a common technique used by bike shops and the headsets are designed to be flipped.
