How’s the fit feel with that short stem? I run Tosco bars and need a stem that’s at least 120-130 mm long to get a reasonable fit (and it’s still a super up right riding position for me).

I don’t know your size, but just from the look of it it seems kinda cramped with the distance between the saddle and the handlebars. Bars like Boscos are often paired with a long stem since they come so far back. I run mine with a 130mm stem, on a bike that already has a kinda long top tube, and while I could possibly have run it with a shorter stem, I’m really happy with the current setup. If it works for you, that’s great, but i’d certainly try to sit on it and get a proper feel of it before committing.

Cracked.

You need a 120mm stem…
That stem seems way too short
