I'm about to buy some superstar wheels and was thinking of changing the stem to tie in the colour scheme. I run a 70mm stem 8' rise
Super star have 65mm and 80 with 5' rise which one is closest ? ;)

Throw in what angle you have the bars at as well. Your risers can change your reach by a few mm. Is it a pink stem? ;)

Maybe... but your gloves, bottle cage counter any other colour out...

This is what you need though...Image

Or change your headset for this Image
