If the hoods feel like a reach, maybe you need a shorter stem. I usually can tell right away if a bar setup will work for me. I ride noodles on my 63 Hilsen, with a 10cm Technomic, a little above seat height, and it's perfect. I've ridden it thousands of miles. I got a 63cm Roadeo, set it up with a 10cm Tallux and Mark's bars and felt like you do, a little over reached for the hoods. I switched to a dirt drop stem which was much better but I had it slammed down so could not lower the bars. Finally found a 6cm Technomic and it is the ticket. The bike fits great now. I would give your current cockpit a couple more rides then maybe consider a stem switch. BTW, I prefer the Noodles to the Mark's Bar.
