Some of the set-ups trials riders are on these days look comical. Is there a benefit to super long stems and rolled forward bars?
I did a test to see how much of a difference riding a comp set-up makes to my riding.
I'm 5'8"/ 172cm tall. I'm riding a short clean x3, and the 2 stems I'm comparing are the trial-tech 120x15 and the Crewkerz 135x15.
1.5cm makes a huge difference!
Which do you think made me ride better?
What is your riding set-up? Height, frame size, and stem/bar length?
Overall, I feel that back wheel endurance and moves to front are better with the long stem, but jumps to rear and general flick-ability is better with the short stem.
