What stem lenght are you running on your DH bikes? This could also be asked as, if you were going to buy a new DH stem today, what length would it be?

Thanks

What's a stem? I use a Dorado DH.

Just kidding... I use the integrated Dorado stem on the second hole. I think that should be a 45 or 55.

i am running the mazocchi integrated stem in the longest setting, now that i have my new frame though i think i might move it to the shorter setting because the top tube is longer. If i were running a stem though it would be a 50 with zero rise.

I started with a 70mm with 10deg. rise...I liked it. Then I put my old 50mm with 10deg rise and liked it better. So...my next stem (Easton) will be 50mm.

edit: oh, I'm 5'11 and run a medium frame.

Last summer it was a 50 Romic integrated on a Boxxer,
next year I will go with the Marzo integrated set at ???? (if I do have the choice on the Risse crown)

On my Enduro bike, it's a 50 Thomson

My son uses a Woodman 35 on his Dirt/4X bike and a 50 Thomson on his DH bike.

used to run 45-50 on my 23" or so TT bikes; now I'm running a 60x10 deg flipped upside down (with 2" riser bars, though) and think it's better for cornering.
