Being very happy with how the new, longer stem has improved the feel and handling of the Giant I decided to lower the stem a bit more. I didn't want to go ridiculously low so I ordered two 5 mm spacers from eBay.
I ordered two because most Bike companies recommend having a spacer between the top of the stem and the top cap which I guess reduces the stress on the steerer tube compared to clamping it right at the end. I'd already tried it with the lower stem, and it was awesome, so I trimmed the steerer tube and put it back together and I think it looks pretty awesome!
