I have a used a 80mm (adjustable stem on a bike). It didn't hurt the bikes handling at all. But I think a 90mm would have been fine. What would have improved the fit/feel, in my case, would have 42cm handlebars. The large bike came with 44cm wide bars which (in MY case)... made me feel too stretched out.
