The stem I think is slightly long for me but nevertheless since I took this photo I slammed the stem. I figure I'll just get used to it, even with my stem up a spacer my position is pretty aggressive even when I'm riding on the tops but I have pretty long arms and legs so reach isn't too much a problem. I do think I should get a slightly larger frame since my seatpost is stupid high at the moment, and yes, my saddle angle was pretty crazy, my bolt was stripped a bit and my friend had my allen keys, it's fixed now. Also set up a pedalroom in case anyone wants some more specs; "Bill" - Pedal Room
Is that outside crossroads on Clark?
