    Not necessarily. I'm almost wondering if removing a spacer or two would help (if that is even what I should be saying - they might not be removable?). Totally not sure though.

    I'm back in Half Marathon running training, so my next ride is Friday, which happens to be a day off. Might be a fun time to pull out bike tools and play.

    Tell your ankles to behave this time!

    You're pretty much stuck with the # of spacers your bike has...you can swap them up or down relative to your stem to move your stem up or down. You can't actually remove spacers without shortening the steer tube.
