Yes, thanks, I know about the insert and the different angles available on the stock stem. Trying to say that we may be a bit beyond relatively small changes in fit.
I'm afraid with the current state of my body there is a choice between a long slow process of riding a little bit more each time or a more upright / stable / comfortable bike that might just get ridden more. (yes, I get that the stability problem is partly me, lol)
