I actually did a great deal of research before purchasing the Mark V (basically researched it all Fall and Winter before placing my purchase in late April). One of the biggest things I researched was sizes/geometries. I did my best to get something as close to my old Fuji road bike (which fits me like a glove) as much as possible but without actually being able to test ride it before I purchased (decided to go with the IRO complete because of the poor selection of LBSes here in Iowa and only after exhaustively researching all other choices) it. Like I said in my initial post, the bike fits me nearly perfectly, the 50cm would have been way too small for me and with the 56cm this would have been even more of a problem, I think for you guys to say I purchased the wrong size bike is a little outlandish. It's merely a problem of me being inbetween sizes. I didn't know that the longer TT would have this much of an affect. It's not that my bike is not ride-able, it's actually near perfect, and to make it perfect, I'm willing to look into buying a slightly shorter stem.

I'm in no way "getting fitted for a custom suit via an internet message board", I know what needs to be done and I'm simply asking for similar looking stems at a decent price because you guys have a lot more knowledge in these type of things that I do. Like I said I'm new to all of this and this was actually my first bicycle purchase so give me a break. At least I'm not trying to put a quill (threaded) stem on a threadless Kilo TT...
