excuse my ignorance, but what advantages do all these guys with really short flat bars have over those with standard length bars?
when im riding really fast i like to hold my bars close to the stem, but i find it incrediably hard to take on climbs while in this position.
is this somthing to get used to and offers a speed advantage, or just some lame fashion?
