yes i do have a number of spacers but i wanted to error on the longer side since if needed i could just put spacers on the top of the stem. As of now i did get rid of two spacers, just wasnt sure on my position since the change from my old bike was alot. But suprisingly there is not alot of flex...Josh

Jbrew,
Beautiful bike!!
I'm curious how many CMs of spacers do you have on there? My new incoming bike will have 3 CM, and I think it will be fine.

Raising the Abyss
Jbrew -- that is quite an impressive pic gallery, especially w/ all the component weight verified on that scale . Seems like you love the bike -- congratulations.
