You can't compare the Reach on two frames with different Stacks directly. The real difference in reach between them is 17mm at the same stem height.



Rhyon, you need a shorter stem. A shorter stem will affect handling much less than having your saddle too far forward or reaching for bars that are too far. You can use a shorter stem or a shorter reach bar - both accomplish the same thing.
