I have read a few posts where Triban 3 owners have fitted a shorter stem. I'm in no rush to buy loads of extras , but am getting wrist pain and just feel a bit stretched out.
I'm 5'10 1/2" on a 57cm frame. I've moved the saddle forward a bit and legs, knees etc feel OK.
I'm sure I need to toughen up a bit but I'd like to get it right as I've had a few problems with wrists and shoulders in the past.
I saw this stem and thought it might be a good buy

I'm also not feeling that confident about my ability to break hard in an emergency. Might these cross levers be a good buy?

I've only cycled 50 miles since I got the bike? I'm I being too precious or am I right to play around with the set up? Thanks
