Home in six weeks. If you don't have by then, let me know. Pretty sure that I have exactly the stem needed.

No help here. I don't even look at stems under 120. Prefer those 135s but I haven't found the tree they grow on. (I've seen one once. It's on one of my bikes.)

Edit: a fun story of my first really long custom stem. I was living in Seattle and had determined a 180(!) -17 (horizontal) quill for my fix gear commuter, a touring model Miyata would give me a position equivalent to what my racing bike had decades before. (I'm average height with arms that go forever. Skinny so I need to be aero if I want to go upwind or simply get to work in Seatlle.) Called R & E. Made an appointment with their in-house frame builder, Matt Houke. Get there and wait for Matt to come upstairs from the basement frame shop.

Well, this little guy comes up the stairs. My heart sinks. No way is he going to "get" the need for a stem that is a real percentage of his length! I show him my drawing. watch him figuratively scratch his head. Hear him talk of his battles to make everything reachable for him. Then the light bulb does off! We are at opposite ends of the same spectrum. From there it was easy. Built me exactly what I wanted, my calcs were right and I was completely sold from the first ride on.

Stems - a place where length really matters!
