I love my Albastache on my Cheviot. It is the only non-drop bar single bike that I own. My brakes are on the curves up at the front of the bar. The stem I use is 2 cm shorter than my drop bar stems. With my hands at the curves up at the front of the bar, it feels much like my drop bar road bike--probably around the tops of the road bar. With my hands at the end of the Albastache, it feels quite upright and comfortable.
It's hard to imagine me going "fast" on the Cheviot (because it's not built up to go fast), but I can easily imagine going very fast on Rich's Roadeo (which I've taken for a little spin). I'm not sure what flavor of Alba* bars he has, but they felt nice! I can't wait for Bill's ride report!
