My bias is that the width of your bar has more to do with your shoulder width than anything else. I like to have it set up so that my arms are facing parallel to the top tube when in the drops, which lets me have the same position with my hands on the upper bend or on the hoods. With fairly wide shoulders, I am pretty comfortable with the wider bars. I _think_ I'm running the 46's - which is what I get CTC at the curve, as per the RBW site. - J -- Jim Edgar cyclofi...@earthlink.net Cyclofiend Bicycle Photo Galleries - http://www.cyclofiend.com Current Classics - Cross Bikes Singlespeed - Working Bikes Gallery updates now appear here - http://cyclofiend.blogspot.com "I had to ride slow because I was taking my guerrilla route, the one I follow when I assume that everyone in a car is out to get me." -- Neal Stephenson, "Zodiac" -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
