I've only been riding since October. In the grand scheme of things, I don't know ****. I'm off to get a 110mm stem, though.

The quiz at the end of this thread will count for 20% of your final grade by the way. You need to lower that stem and get a bit longer on your bike in my opinion. And if nothing else that will get you closer to Patentcad's #1 Rule of Cycling:


1.) It is better to LOOK like a pro than to ride like a pro.
