Commute to and from work on the Trek Commuter. I added a new CroMoto quill stem today with a 90 degree angle and 110mm in length. The old stem was 75 degree bend and 85mm long. A much improvement in that the vintage road bike geometry is odd in that the top tube is shorter and the rear wheel sits back farther and the stem offset is short. So the vintage frame requires some finagling to get correct....I will post some photos of the transformation of my Vintage Trek frame into a superb fair weather commuter soon!!!
