my hunq had albatross bars and a 11cm tallux for most of it's life. for most normal day riding, i was very happy with that even though i mostly found my hands sliding forward to the curves, kinda sitting on top of the brake clamps. on a 1.5 week tour, this started to become quite uncomfortable. separately, i couldnt find a comfortable place for my hands on long, steep climbs. they wanted to go to the front of the bar, but the downslope made that feel weird. anyway, i got home, got curious, and put on an albastache with 8cm dirt drop stem. so far so good. haven't done any multi day rides yet where they will truly reveal themselves, but the albastache are great/comfortable/uprightish with still some forward lean capability for the 10 mile rides ive been doing.
also, ill come out and say that i think mustache style bars look great, and ill admit that i kept the albatross cockpit fully intact for re-plugging in, because it truly was an almost always perfect set up that im not yet fully convinced i have improved on. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
