So I might be ordering a helmet soon and I have a bit of money left over, not enough for a top load stem but enough for some headset spacers.
How do I know how many spaces I can put on? I have one spacer on right now with a front load stem.

take off your compression bolt and see how much room you have for your stem to come up. the top of your steer tube should not go any lower than your top pinch bolt on your stem. id say flip your stem if you want more rise or just 1, 5mm spacer.

Those are too heavy, make sure they're carbon fiber.....
But really, if theres only one spacer im sure theres room for more. cant really tell you for sure unless you show us
