Sounds like the geometry of the 168 isn't for everyone. And that's okay. However, you should probably consider yourself lucky...
I have the opposite problem in that most frames simply aren't long and low enough for me without requiring some extreme length stem.
Not sure which is more extreme: Needing to push the saddle far forward to reduce reach over the bottom bracket, or using a 140mm+ stem to accommodate reach while keeping the stack low.
Just watched almost your entire 168 video on YT this morning while having breakfast.
I mean besides the room for improvements and such. You are such a great guy in front of the camera. And with all this "room for improvements" it also have its own charm, you are just starting up and being new with the entire YT influencer thing it is also understandable everything is not perfect.
What I wanna say is, you have an incredible future ahead of you if you continue doing what you do. With frequent uploads, more content and some improvements you could easily be +100K subs by the end of 2023.
Just keep doing what you do man! More ride videos and more tech savvy stuff
You are awesome
