• Having the bars rolled back more can be more comfortable for longer rides, though a lot of people prefer rolled forward for an 'aggressive' position, weighting the front wheel more

    What you seem to have there are bars rolled forward, along with a high lever position which would cause your wrists to bend back

    Everybody finds their own thing though. It's at least a lot easier to experiment than with drop bars, as there's no bar tape faff

  • Yeah, I still feel very high and uncomfortable on this bike, but that may just be down to the drop im used to on the road bike; the new fork brings the rake in to 44mm and I have a few other stems of varying drop (-8 to -20 / 70/80/90mm) which I hope will change the handling and comfort dynamics favourably.
    Also feel like the seatpost sill isn’t high enough.
