    None at all. Not a sausage. Not even a sliver of a spacer, top or bottom.

    Or will I catch fire and die?

    It'll be fine.

    Is it daft question day on this forum today?

    Alu steerer you'll be fine on carbon most manufacturers are now saying a 5mm spacer above and below the stem.

    I thought it was a silly question, but then I thought "what the hell?" and asked anyway.

    Hurrah.

    None of this fancy carbon lark, apart from the spacers I'm removing!

    flat stems look good on horiz-top tube bikes only IMO.

    Always worth checking if you're unsure 😉
