Stems have a profound effect on the way your bike handles. Ones which may look similar in design can each offer dramatically different handling. If yours is a crappy stock one, upgrading will be worthwhile. I think 110mm might be too long unless you like the stretched out position. Maybe try installing a stem riser first and see how that changes the feel.
Please...explain. Given that the trail isn't going to change, no frame angles are going to change...tell me how this works. Think about it first.
