    A 17" 520 had a 54 cm TT - still long.

    I agree, Nitto makes some nice stems which would be perfect for this.
    I'm 5'1" on a tall day I was about to toss my old Trek 420 circa about the same vintage into the Bay. It hurt to ride. My LBS said the frame fit me, I needed WSD or narrower bars.

    I think we kept the same stem at first.

    Eventually went to Nitto along with shorter crank arms.

    So if the height is right and you want shorter reach could the bars do it?

    But Dedo WSD (I think they weren't really women specific, just narrower with shorter reach) and Cinnelli purple cow spot bar tape and wow, what a difference.

    And only cost about 30'ish as I recall.

    I agree since we can't see you I'm sure there's a good shop in the area.
