Nice! How is the handling with this stem though?

It handles great with the spacer, stem and bars. Perfect set up for me.

That is a truly beautiful bike. Well done.

9.250kg as pictured.

Will probably get 150g off of it by switching to Berk Lupina Unpaded (instead of the Versus Evo Adaptive currently on it), cuting the steerer shorter, and switching to lighter axles. Sub 9kg with pedals is out of question, but easily achievable without pedals.

Also, the final build will have a Fox with remote-control instead of the current SID-lux-ultimate, adding probably around 40g. I got a great deal on a 2021 Fox Float Factory, but that was before realizing that Fox had switched to Push-to-Unlock for few year before getting back to Push-to-Lock in 2022 (which is the case for my 34 stepcast fork, so rear-shock and fork were operating in opposite direction when pushing the remote ... 🤦🏻‍♂️ ), so returned it and I'm now waiting on a 2022 PTL Fox Float

Which means that the very lightly used Sid Lux Ultimate pictured bellow will be for sale in a week if anyone is interested. So far it has one 2h ride on it, and shouldn't be much more than that since I'm supposed to receive the Fox replacement tomorrow, if anyone wants to make me an offer.
