Quick ride this morning to see if I could get away with a shorter steerer…
I think my old back and wrists says no.
I could always look for a higher stem but I’m desperately trying not to turn this into a money pit!!

Back says "2 sizes bigger frame please"

Mind say " no im still just as fit and agile as i was at 18"

I know from experience who will win in the long run....spoiler alert.....its not your mind.

I'm sure you could pick up a stem cheap enough, or maybe some riser bars?

 

[Tootyred]

Oh.....but then it wouldn't look like the bike you want....and there's the rub!

I want to buy the P2’s Stevede has for sale, triple butted and I think they’re the original 97 colour. It would look great, but as I tell my Mrs, looks aren’t everything…

I agree with you.
