Also - Went on a decently longish test ride last night and I have determined that I am just an albatross bar man. I have to throw my preconceived notions of what a road bike looks like out the window and realize that I'm happier and more comfortable on Albatross bars. I don't really have a speed penalty either, as I am plenty fast enough on my albas, but may be *feel* as fast.. maybe I equate my discomfort with speed, because I used to ride bikes that were plenty fast yet uncomfortable.
I just ordered these <http://store.somafab.com/diacodchareb.html>to try and give me that "on the hoods" position with the albas for when I really want to stretch out and go fast. I know it says 23.8mm clamp, but I'm figuring I can make it work with the albas. I'm also wondering if a 14cm stem, vs the 12cm I've got on on there would give me an even better balance of being able to get upright, while also being able to stretch out and get low(ish) into a headwind. Or maybe I just put the knobs on there and lower the stem a tad. Thanks for listening/reading! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
