Pffft......my bike has a 63cm TT
Yes, hard to find a 150, I've never actually seen one. I'm not sure they exist. Kind of like the Easter Bunny.

I ride a 58cm road bike 61cm track bike for this reason. The bars are narrower on the latter.

Just adding more stem could affect handling. Sometimes more TT is what’s best.
Yes, I'm wrestling with that, trying to avoid buying another frame, but it may come to that. In terms of handling, do longer stems slow down steering response?
