    Hi Charlie,

    I recently changed the stem for a 10mm shorter one due to the planned change in the crank arm length (as due to this the saddle position goes up and back a couple of mm). If you consider changing the cranks in near future, you may take this into account as well when buying the stem.
    Secondly, 10mm without any other changes make a difference. And also compare the reach in mm between your new handlebars and the old ones, especially if you spend most of the time on the hoods. I find the small changes (few mm here and there) can make all the difference to your comfort ;).

    the fsa wing bars make a massive difference in reach in comparison to say a standard ritchey/deda/bontrager bar so i would bolt it on first and see for yourself..
    but if your just pairing up bars with stem then this will also tell you which length fsa stem you actually need..
