  Cheers for that, it explains it nicely. What does the slightly further forward position do tho, does it improve power or something?

  the biggest effect of them is to extend the position forward, as well as to create the new hand position. also you can't really hold the tops cos of the aero shape. Think they are also a bit flexy in the drops. overall, not particularly awesome for a novice, and really quite a weird thing that Felt decided to put a 230 quid bar on the TK2 as standard.

  I was thinking exactly the same thing regarding price, especially considering its about a quarter of the price i paid for the bike, thats a lot to set aside for bars.

  I have just taken a set of these of my TK2 and replaced with airwings. Just wondering about this sphinx position though. Whats so different about these bars? They dont seem that much different to a drop bar?
