2nd Road Bike: Trek or Specialized?

How short is the stem on the Ruby Comp?

Really short stems freak me out on the bike because the steering is so twitchy. It's too bad you can't test ride them for longer!!!

Thanks for the post; I hadn't thought about stem length and changes to bike handling. Ruby Comp stem is 100mm but the LBS can swap it out to probably a 90 mm to make it a better fit.
