Thank you! I am kind of afraid 130mm will not give me enough height drop like the 100x20 as I also feel like the current one is also pretty long already (feel like I am too over/close to the front - yet again, haven't done trials for a long time). 100*20 is only 3mm shorter considering the headtube angle - see pic Would I really go wrong with 100mm? But If I go longer, I would definitely go with 130x20 Comas. For now I will probably drop my current stem with 10mm (max I can do) and try. Not sure if that would make much difference.

Hello there, I am a restarter and recently got myself a new bike. Geometry wise it is rather old school (2008), +30mm BB So it may be because I am not trained enough, but I feel like the front is way too heavy while on back wheel. My previous bike back then was even lower BB but absolutely no rise stem and it MAYBE was easier. Then again, I am a restarter and I may be just too weak for now... So my question is: Would you change to a lower rise stem? I am thinking about buying a 100mm / 20° one. I am 173cm tall. Current stem is 135 / 35 Here are my measurements in the pic - unfortunately it is done via picture, but it should be precise-ish more or less, some precision probably lost to perspective, but you may get the general idea of the geometry. Also a stem comparision with the 100/20 (red is 100/20, blue is 135/35):
