hi again i was wondering what the difference is between a 25° stem and a 35° stem? what are the benefits of each of them? i have a 150mm 35° jitsie stem on my jitsie varial 26 but whenever i do a sidehop or a big gap i hit my thigh on my handlebars and the bolt wich holds my brake lever. result is a relative huge bruise on my thigh. would a lower stem be helpful or do i need a longer stem? Thanks in advance!!!

alright thanks for the answers! bought the cheaper model. i don't think i need a tapered head tube because my weight is only 60 kgs and my level of riding isn't as jack carthy ;;)

hi is it worth to pay more and go for the jitsie varial 26 race instead of the cheaper jitsie varial 26? on the race version some parts are better but like the stem, freewheel, chain,... but i already have some good parts from my old bike(magura hs33 rimbrakes and a carbon handlebar) so my question is, is it worth paying more to get the race version for the other better parts? i also saw that the headtube on the race version is slightly shorter 110 mm instead of 120 mm on the cheaper model but this isn't so much of a big deal right? thanks in adcanve!!
