Exactly. Stem is extended to the max. I either had to add 2 cm of spacers or use the extender. I opted to use the extender but could always remove it and use spacers instead. The headtube on my bike was 1.5 cm shorter than they told me it would be when I ordered. If it had been the right length, the extender (or spacers) wouldn't be needed.
