Dan-Walker Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 you dont need a high rise stem on a limey, just go for something like the echo control stem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash-Kennard Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 how do you know, you run a short low stem with a high bb.although he is right, get the 100mm echo control stem, and some zoo! bars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GyTrials Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 I use the hi-fi stem on the 06 pittbul with zoo bars and am still finding it too low with the high bottom bracket, i'm looking at getting a mod stem for it.Should work well with the Limey though.Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPbIM3 Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 sory, i missed something, but what the limey's Geo?if its +0mm-+25mm the low stem will suit you well (ex: 110mmX7degrees + Zoo rise bar or some flat bar)if more than +35mm U should get some high(20degrees or even more) stem and flat or risebar(depends on what you prefer more) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 sory, i missed something, but what the limey's Geo?It is a +20 bottom bracket, with approx 1100mm wheelbase. The front end of the frame is quite long though!The stem Thomas used to run on his Dave was the PZ31 in 120mm: As seen here. He's bloody tall though, so I'd recommend something a little shorter if poss, maybe one of the new Echo stems in 115mm x 15, and then a spacer or two?Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan Shaw Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 I ran a Hope stem, and that felt decent.. it was 110mm with 10degree rise and a 5mm spacer under it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrishayton Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 get the pazzaz stem, i run one on my control and its perfect so will also feel nice on a limey, low bars on a limey leaves you very stretched out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
