@Hansdie: Are you a time traveller sir? 7075 is still quite a few years away last time I checked.

@Fat4242: Do check out the video, but the tldr is longer chainstays and different suspension setup to shift the weight balance forward, to compensate the stem moving the rider's weight backwards.

Hope Releases Super Short High-Stack Stem

Ergotec makes 55mm stems with a 40mm stack height, not quite the same but close. Edit: length is about 38mm, they measure it along a 45°angle for some reason.

Hope Releases Super Short High-Stack Stem

@Tristanssid: Some quick maths tells me for the 35mm version, the edge of the bar should sit 2.5mm in front of the center of the steerer tube. So with a 4mm head on the preload bolt, it should just clear, while a 5mm head would require a ball head allen key. At least in theory, assuming perfectly vertical insertion, as a 5mm hexagon has a circumcircle radius of about 2.9mm.

Shimano Launches Cable-Actuated XT Drivetrain

You will notice in the workshop lol. Sram was already better with their lock button in this regard, but replacing the disengageable cluth with a fixed heavy spring... let's say it surely hasn't reduced the ammont of swearwords I use on a daily basis :lol:
