Another thing that really is surprisingly helpful is to bring your bike in, install it on their trainer, and have them use a fitting stem. They can adjust the length and angle, have you ride again, adjust again, etc. You might be surprised at how obvious the "sweet spot" is. You then buy or order a stem of the quality you care to pay for, with the understanding it's exchangible in the near future if it's not damaged. Then ride it 100 miles and see if it still seems right. At that point, you've started with something that is very close and tweek from there - as opposed to needing to go back and forth several times trying to adjust length and angle.rudycyclist said:The way I found out what stem fit me best was to go to a bike shop with an array of sizes (the quality of the stem doesn't matter, they can just order whichever one you want). Try a bunch of them and try to determine which one makes you feel not too stocky yet not too elongated.
