I think I still prefer flats but have got used to the rise.
I certainly need it.
The difference for me is the width.
I have more control on the turn now and don't do so many of those sharp turn twist falls!
I still prefer a low bar for an aggressive attacking feel and only use a rise to take me up to a similar position I had with the Carlton.
