As some of you may remember, I recently built up a Saluki with your
generous help in selecting components.

I have an on-and-off bad back, and thought it would be a great idea to
raise the handlebars substantially above the level of the seat. Didn't
solve the problem, so I ended up lowering the bars to seat level.
Magically, my back pain disappeared.

The lesson for me is that high bars aren't a magic solution to back
problems. I think in my case, the bars when raised were just at the
right height to put a lot of stress on my back.

In any case, if you're suffering like I was, give it a shot. You never
know.
