ooops.. pity... IN this case travel decrease make no sense, but who and why will by 90mm version then, loosing 10mm of travel with no profits at all?
Regarding different stems variants - honestly I can not imagine putting Richey on this bike...
Maybe Syntace Flatforce is an option, but it will not fit between upper Lefty clamp and headtube! Few mm is missing - this is M size frame
The only one fitting option is traditional (over upper LEFTY clamp), but how does it compare to MCFK/Extralite -17% in handlebar effective lowering?
I would still prefer something more exotic and light than Syntace..

yeah, sure... 300 EUR range is my absoletely psychological limit of "PAIN" for ordinary piece of tube like for eg. stem in reality is!
I think, I will wait for MCFK - 17%, matt black UD - maybe will match somehow Enve bar...
And still in pain limit!

Pity that Enve Does not have this -17 version..
What would be better for 90kg rider? Extralite or Mcfk? Zipp is definitelly to heavy...
Another, quite brave option, is new upper Lefty Clamp - mounted ca 2cm lower than oryginal...
What do think?
And last but not least - will the travel change from 100 to 90 influence something?
If you're 90kg and not under 10% bodyfat, the ~70g is not going to matter. There are not many very aggressive stem options that are light. An old Ritchey 4 axis would probably be the lightest, but they were kind of flimsy. Zipp, 3T, Deda, and a few others make fairly aggressive stems and after the Ritchey the 3T team might be the lightest.
My Extralite stem at 73kg was flexy as all hell. I would not want to use it for a MTB.
