Stem angle / length

[cdm]

Hi all,

Current equipment at my Cube Reaction Hybrid Pro ebike is:

Stem - CUBE Performance Stem Pro, 31.8mm Angle 6, lenght 90mm
Bar - CUBE Rise Trail Bar, 680mm

I got new Bar - 780mm, 35.0mm

I need to buy new Stem with 35.0mm clamp.

Should I take the same Angle and lenght or smaller?

Depends on your arm length, back length, desired riding position. I like entirely different riding position than the lycra road bike crowd, around here I am not hooted at as much as on roadbikereview.com .
I ride straight up, erect posture, neck straight, sort of like Mary Poppins on the caroussel horse. You may ride differently. Suit yourself.

I put a 55mm stem riser on my Haibike and love it. No seat above the bars riding for me either

Just having the longer bar may not require a different set-up with the stem. Unless you want to change that. You have to figure out what you want to accomplish as to where your hand position will be. If you don't want the bar to be so long, you can always cut it down. But figure out what you want first!

I put a stem riser on my bike because I like a more upright position, it's easier on the back for me. The seat adjustment front to back was something I played with awhile until I got it to a comfortable position, then I decided on stem height and length, but as said above, it really depends on what you are most comfortable with.
