I’ve shrunk to just less than 6’1” and use 48 Noodles on my bikes. When Bill Farrell brought out the Fit Kit, I was measured and moved from 40’s to 44, I increased my stem extension from 105 to 130. I moved to 46 bars when Grant got them and then 48s when they came out. I still like long stem extensions. Steve
