I use a Ritchey Pro30 30degree 120mm and I'm 6'4"/194cm. Works well for me, and it's lightweight too.

120mm with 40 degree rise stem for $17.

Probably cheaper than any new mod stem.

that looks all sorts of sketchy. since you're pretty damn tall i would run a 145x25 stem with some high rise bars like the montys

AL 6061 T-6 Bar Bore : 31.8 mm
30 degX 150 mm
