The drop handlebars, you know those curvy things that attach to the stem. I realise it's a rather dated notion to not waste money on aero bars but I don't see the point in buying time until I'm good enough a rider to justify it.
Therefore I ride tucked down in the lowest position I can still move my legs in. For roundabouts I was wondering if it would be faster to remain in the tucked position or sit up to a more stable riding position and try for tighter cornering by applying more force in steering.
