Just add some extra spacers to a lower rise stem!

Thanks guys , can't add spacers as the steerer isn't long enough , considered using higher rise bars but would like to shorten the reach a bit hence the shorter stem with more rise solution .

Rental Strata duo. You need look no further. Just bin a 10mm spacer to slam it a bit.

Rough calculation (I may be wrong, haven't done maths in some time), but you'll only lose less than 1mm in length due to the rise of about 8mm. I could well be wrong though.

A 50mm 10degree stem will only buy you <2mm in height gain over an 8deg stem, only 3mm on a 6degree. Not worth the extra bucks I reckon... Consider finding a stem with a smaller stack in a more readily available rise and adding a spacer below of the difference.
