If the stem length is not yet determined, it’s recommended to start at the 90mm (or 110mm) position.
Changing the stem from the 60mm to 90mm (or 80mm to 110mm) position will require that the cable
housings be replaced with longer ones to accommodate the additional stem length. It’s easier to trim cable
housings to a shorter length if adjusting from the 90mm to the 60mm (or 110mm to 80mm) position.
