As Yeti don't supply complete bikes, only frames, the stem length is down to the builder of the bike.

I tried a 60, 70 and 80mm on mine. The 80mm was fine for general riding, the 60 made it better downhill, easier to pop the front, but a bit short for climbing. In the end I settled on 70mm. I did the Transwales with a 70mm on and it was perfect. ๐Ÿ™‚

Mine originally had a 120, I think. and 630mm bars ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

Now has 670mm bars and a 90mm stem. I like. Don't want to shorten it as it might muck up the tremendous climbing ability of bike (and rider) ๐Ÿ™‚

I have a 100 on mine. Sufficient for my limited ability.

It depends what height you are.

I ride a medium but I'm right on the edge between small and medium so run a 50 mm stem which is fine. Makes it a lot more fun downhill.

The top tube on a yeti is also quite long so a shorter stem is an option.

2007s were sold in the US as complete bikes & came with a 110mm on the mediums

So that'll be a 50, 70, 90, 100 or 110mm. Simples ๐Ÿ™‚
