Question about stem size
Once again another question from the old dirty bastard:
Thinking of buying this stem for my KiloTT & Origin8 risers, and I just want to know what kind of difference I'll feel from that of the stock stem on the kilo? (which I believe is a 90mm stem)
And what quality can I expect from this brand?

Dimension Downhill 25.4 50mm 90 Degree Black Stem

Also thanks to everyone on this board, you all are very helpful to NOOBS

If you have your stem pointed up, your body will drop a little bit, but it also shorter so your shoulders will be more over the bars. Depending on the rise of your bars what will proably happen is your hips will be more strait over your saddly, your back will be curved up over your bars, and your arms will be more straight down over the bars.

me thinks the shorter the stem, and the higher upward degree, the more upright one will be

To get the stem to get straight out from the bike, you would nee an 18degree stem facing "down".
My post was also a bit missleading, im sorry. Its the same angle, but muh shorter which is effectivly a drop, but not an actual drop in angles.
