Re: [RBW] Your bike ride better with upright bars than drops?

2016-10-04 Thread Clayton.sf
Thanks Rich and Patrick, it is a great bicycle. Got a good deal on it and happy 
that it can fit up to 32mm tires. It is designed for grass track too so not as 
"tracky" as some other track bikes. Fun for rides up to 100k longer than. That 
and some drop bars are in order.

Oh and yes, swept back bars with short top tubes feel not good to me either. 
Prefer to stretch rather than scrunch.

Clayton, that looks like a fun rider. Nice! Thanks for the pic. Agree with 
other comments about the bars corresponding with the frame, setup and other 
factors.  
I installed Albas on an '85 Trek road bike and it was not fun when my hands 
were positioned at the end of the bars. Drops went back on.

Looking forward to trying the Albas on my Clem. Should be a more enjoyable 
experience.

Regards,
Richard
