I will buy a new stem and bullhorns bars to complete my built .
What stem length do you recommend ?
My old bike had a 100mm stem and riser bars if that helps.

It really depends on the bike and how you like your fit / your own proportions.
I would start off with whatever size stem you have currently and then get a longer or shorter depending on how it feels...most likely it will be shorter.

^this.
You will probably want something shorter, but even that might not be true depending on where you like to keep your hands and your saddle-to-bar difference. Try what you got and go from there.

At least a 200. Silly assed question.
I'm 5'10". What size gloves should I wear?
How much does a red car cost?
In which direction does the tube get installed?
Between 50-250mm.
Best oxymoron. "jumbo shrimp"
"Jumbo shrimp" hahahahahaha oh hahahahah oh ha ha ha
They won't fit on your bike!
I use nitto sb-021 which have a drop. On a 57cm bike I used a 70mm stem on my new bike 54cm Bareknuckle I'm using an 80 mm just to keep things familiar. But yea no way around experimenting. I got extra 60 and 70 mm black dimension stems laying around if anybody wants. I think the general rule is that bullhorns stretch you out more than risers or drops so use a shorter stem relatively.

General rule of thumb, for most predictable steering, regardless of bar type is a stem long enough to position the center of your hands directly above your axle. Rise is a personal comfort decision. Hope that helps a bit,
