Sadly this bike frame is now bent downwards after me being hit by a motorcyclist. I am alright, but for the bike it is not doing too well. The front rim and handlebars were bent along with the frame. I did get a new bike though, its nothing special, but it looks pretty sweet.

Instead of getting a new stem, you could just lower the seat and it would solve your height issue.-Sean Scandalous

my bad

i stated the problem differently and changed it to what I meant now

Uhh, what?

This is bad advice, especially if you can't see the person riding the bike. Your position on the saddle and the reach on the stem are totally unrelated. You should never sacrifice your proper place on the saddle to accommodate an ill-fitting stem. Instead, replace the stem with one that fits.

No,

The problem was stated differently before. You are right, but in what he described before, the problem sounded like a height issue with the saddle sitting too high.-Sean Scandalous

new

also I have just added on a new saddle and a Velocity rim
