Stem -10 degree, 110mm, sub 120g, sub $50-60 ?

I can confirm that the Deda Superleggero -8 Stem and the FSA SL-K -12 Stem both have a total stack height of 34mm vs other stems that are in the 40mm rangeshimmeD wrote: ↑Wed Jan 09, 2019 1:22 amBeware, the stack height you refer to on the Deda may actually be the clamping stem-to-steerer only. In my experience I moved from a Ritchey (42mm) to a Thomson (36mm) with no difference in handlebar height. The 6mm difference was taken off the top of the stem clamping.

I think shimmeD is referring to the height of handlebar. Meaning, doesn't matter that Deda has 6mm lower stack height than others (34mm vs. 40mm) - both placing handlebar on same distance from the ground. That is what actually interested me.
If Deda, with 6mm lower stack height, doesn't put handlebar 3mm lower (let's say 3mm "less material" from up and down of stem), then it doesn't really matter to me. And in that case -10 degree stem would be more interesting option.

If you can find me one with -10 degree, I'll buy it. Immediately.
More so, I will also buy one with -8 degrees, 110mm, so I will have 3 stems to play for at least a month.
I'll like to find a -10 degree stem that is round and has a short stack.
The Pro PL is -10 and nice but its not a short stack and is a hexagon shape that does not go well with round frame tubes to my eye.

My new project has a bit taller Head Tube than I like, so I installed a Extralite UltraTop Headset. The UltraTop dropped it about 10mm vs the Chris King head set, then I used a Deda Superleggero Stem 120 -8 stem that has a 34mm stack. The 2 together droped it about 16mm.

Wren. -6 or -17 degree, sub 100g, and 50$ or so
Does anyone have -10° stem on bike with 12° (11-13 is fine, too) slope top tube? Pics would be much appreciated.
I try to figure out will it be (for me) visually ok, or would be too much "down", "broke down" look.
For my calculation, -8° stem would be in line with top tube, but ... some extra drop of handlebar (no spacers left) would be welcomed. So ...

-17 on my bike is flat to the road. Never much thought of the asthetics of it. More aero.StanK wrote: ↑Sun Jan 13, 2019 1:36 pmDoes anyone have -10° stem on bike with 12° (11-13 is fine, too) slope top tube? Pics would be much appreciated.

Older model Eason EA90 with ti bolts should be around that weight and under that price (on sale). I picked up a -10* EA90 for under 30 bucks.
