Jay, can I ask which quill stem you went with for your Jones bars? I see a 3 different 31.8 quill stems with the removable face plates on the Crust bikes website: 15 degree & 30 degree Nitto UI stems & the Nitto BJ stem.
I agree about the upright posture with the Bosco's, every bump in the road seems targeted on my brain, and riding downhill makes me feel like I'm about to fly over my handlebars. Plus the cockpit is just way too darn cramped. I had to search for the longest & lowest stem I could find just to make Albatross bars comfortable, and that's with my butt and saddle all the way back on a lugged seat post. I thought remembered trying out the Bullmoose Bosco bars at Riv back in 2013, so I double checked my memory on the Internet Way Back Machine, and Bosco's, Bullmoose Bosco's, Dove bars & and Albatross bars were all in the 2012 Riv catalog when I ordered my Hunqapillar. I wouldn't trade my Hunq for anything, but it seems like somewhat of an outlier in Rivendell design geometries, and was trying to understand why.
