cross bars are kinda ok if they're low (top tube height roughly), but hugely problematic when they're high. I got a lot of shit for allegedly "resting" on one in Nantes, but unless you're in my body you cannot judge if I'm merely flush with it, or applying pressure. In the ESPI video Kremin literally grabs the crossbar at some point, as a reflex.
I vote for no crossbar or a low one.
