I was about to order some Vision Tech base bars. A guy at my local shop told me they wouldn't be good for me because they are only 42cm wide. I have broad shoulders and he said I need wider base bars. He said narrow base bars would screw up the way my bike handles.
I plan on being down on the aerobars 90 percent of the time anyway. I'll only be on the base bars on a climb or descent if I need to be quick with the brakes.
This guy was not a triathlete. Does he have a point? I don't think anybody makes a wide base bar. Has anyone had problems with bars being too narrow?
