I don’t think the STA matters. Slack HTA is more stable climbing out of the saddle, in the saddle, etc. Certainly a steep vs. slack HTA will handle differently on climbs. I like the extra stability of a slack and long bike everywhere, but I can appreciate where some people prefer a ‘sportier’ feeling.
