thanks! I want to give it a chance to see if I want a slightly shorter stem, but I think this general fitting is working for me. it feels just a little stretched out, but if I start going shorter, it's hard to know where to stop. the handlebar is still a bit lower than the saddle and this is a pretty long stem. I can even ride on flat roads with my forearms resting on the tops of the bars like I am using aero bars without feeling like I am going to lose control or kill my back.
