Email Mark at Riv. He’s certainly buillt more 51cm Appas than anyone else on earth and would definitely be able to tell you if the Chocomoose stem is slammable on a 51. He probably won’t be able to tell you what your final saddle to bars height difference will be, but at least he can cover that

On paper, yes, I had a 51 Appa a couple years ago and now I have a 53 Atlantis and they're basically the same bike. In real world a whole lotta life and bikes and money changed hands between then and now, so the degrees of separation between the two are many. It I was offered both today I

Doug, based on these photos of that bike with those bars, it's a definite maybe that you'll get them level with the saddle, definitely NOT below. They're a little higher than my saddle here, which was set about 69-70cm. https://photos.app.goo.gl/6aXFGF2TcTdddV637 -- You received this message

Howdy folks, I am in the process of buying a 51cm Joe Appa. It is complete, but I always envisioned Chocomooses on mine if I got one and it doesn't have them. I also assumed I would "slam" them, I don't generally run bars above saddle height. My saddle height is somewhere in the 71-72cm range,
