Shorter stem/ head shake how can i fix?
Pretty much as title says
Changed stem from 120mm to 90mm feels loads better but when going hard downhill felt quite unstable with twitchy front end.
New stem has rise of 5 compared to old of 10 degrees and still have 2 spacers above and below , but which way do i go?

The lightness in the front end is often a by-product of shortening the stem length. Try lowering the bars as this should put more of your weight on the front.0

You've taken a third off the length of your stem, the front end will feel twitchy and unstable because you have reduced the leverage you have over the front end. You will get used to it though.0
