    i bought such a small stem because the bike was actually too big for me and had to try make the reach smaller.

    I got a ridgeback radium recently for commuting.

    Carbon forks. And comes with full length SKS mudguards.
    Works out around €580 inc shipping.

    Been cycling it for a month now, and very happy with it.
