    Measure it? There no way we can know what size yours came with im afraid. I could guess and say it was a 100mm lol.

    I'd get that checked at a shop as quickly as possible if you can't measure a stem :D

    Thanks Keezx I wasn't sure where to measure it from and would have measured it from end to end very helpful.

    Most stems will have the length and angle printed on them somewhere. Usually in small print.

    Have any of you used one of those Thompson stems? They look really nice in that piccie.

    I dunno, I find my stem quite useful. Helps keep the bars in place.
