Hey John, I have Wavie bars on my Quickbeam with a 130mm stem and about 2cm of drop. Bars are angled down about a degree or so. For comparison, I have 48cm Noodles on a 100mm stem and about 3cm of drop, Shimano R400 levers (not long reach)
The Wavies still feel pretty upright to me compared to the Noodle setup. I would feel comfortable setting the Wavie bars on a bike that was smaller than what I typically ride with drops. I've ridden them around 150 miles so far. Hope that helps, Christian Berkeley, CA On Monday, April 29, 2019 at 1:02:09 PM UTC-7, John Phillips wrote: > > What stems, with how much reach, are people using with their Wavie bars? > > John > > On Wednesday, April 18, 2018 at 5:09:31 PM UTC-7, Bob Ehrenbeck wrote: >> >> >> After hearing about the upcoming Wavie handlebars from Bill Lindsay in this >> post >> <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/rbw-owners-bunch/9Nt3PiOE2tg>, >> I took his suggestion to ask Riv if they would send some photos ahead of >> the catalog arrival.
