Why do most (AFAIK) base bars have the handles at what I guess would be called a flat position? Or why don’t more base bars have the handles down a few inches in height? Am I just unusual in that I would be comfortable with bars in that position? I was fooling around with position and my A700’s have the hand rest things at a height much higher than my drops would be on a similar bike.
It’s a trend. I’m old school so I have the Profile dropped base bar that puts the brakes about 4 inches below my Streamliners. I like it because I feel more like Lance that way. Looks serious too.
