I think you'll have to just remove the stock stem to see what you've got, try some stems to make sure they turn without rubbing the frame. Many stems have the bolts on the backside which may hit the frame when you rotate the bars.
That said, I had success with buying the extension adapters so i could use Zipp ski-bend extensions. the pad height on the stock cockpit was already perfect and the new extensions did the trick.

In my efforts to find a stem for the 2012 Shiv TT, which have failed miserably, I'm wondering if the new S-works Aero cockpit and stem would work. Any thoughts?
I know the Shiv TT stem will only work with the provided, proprietary cockpit. However, if I switch the stem and cockpit, would it work? IE, no clearance issues, etc?
I've talked to Specialized a few times and they said no stems for 2012 Shiv TT's are available, nor will they ever be, thus making me think the new stem/cockpit combo would work.
Any help here is very much appreciated.
Thanks
