aliao Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 This question is kind of silly because it's personal preference... I will say that most of the 150x30 stems actually measure differently. One tip i'll give you though, is that the 145x25 Clean stem + a 10mm spacer pretty much measures up the same as a Breath 150x30 (just a couple mm shorter).

Ross W. Posted December 1, 2015 Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 I have a 145 x 25 stem with the white Breath bar and like the setup a lot. The lower stem and the fact that the Breath bar has very little backsweep (essentially upsweep once you roll the bar forward) allows you to run the bar rolled further back while still having your hands in the same place as with other bar/stem setups rolled forward. Kind of hard to explain, but if you like running your bar Carthy style, I definitely recommend a 25 degree stem, allows you to run your bar in a more comfortable angle for your wrists. I would be interested to try the Hashtagg bar with a 145 x 25 stem as the Hashtagg has less forward (up) sweep than the Breath bar, could be even more comfortable on the wrists (although it has more backsweep so might just be different).
