Sorry Colm, I found the old Felt stem I had but it's 100mm.
Could've sworn it was 90mm but no, it's 100mm.
Sorry

I have a 90mm stem I got off CRC in 2012. It's a Controltech Estro.

• 90mm 7075 T6 black aluminium stem
• 31.8mm handlebar dia
• 1 1/8" steerer dia
• 90/±5deg
• 138g according the the digital Aldi kitchen scales.

Moved to a 100mm stem for this year as I need to be a bit more aero, took me a while to get used to the added 10mm, I was as stiff as a poker after the first few spins after it. I liked this stem because it looks good, is relatively light and stiff and does the job well. Takes a number 4 allen key to tighten the bolts. 20 euro posted.

Thanks for the offer. I've actually just booked myself a bike fit with Aidan Hammond so I'm going to do that first and then see what changes I need to make. I may be back onto you!

Cheers
Colm

He fitted me also before Christmas. Some good hills down his way to try the bike on after the fit.
