Whoa, that is up there, hehe. I love the deluxe I just bought. It got the top of the stem level with the saddle, which is my comfort spot. I like to lean just slightly on the hoods, gives me a better control
feel in the curves. If my bars are too high, it always make me feel like the front wheel could plow in
a quick turn. Just a personal preference thing I guess. That is a very nice looking bike! I remember the catch pic well.....BD

I will say the Deluxe has way less "twist" than most stems I've ever had. A nice plus.
