And note that Fausto could easily get as low as Albert in the hooks by simply bending his elbows. I discovered that having the bar 2 cm above the saddle on the Fargo didn't mean that I could not get low: if I bent my elbows 90 degrees I was as low as in the hooks of my road bikes with bar 2 cm below saddle, tho' shallower drop. OTOH, I did just the other day reduce the Noodles on the Fargo to even with saddle because I feel that it gives me better weight distribution. The hoods are still high enough for long distance comfort and the hooks for 10 miles at a stretch and the lower flats and ramps don't feel as tippy. I expect that really high bars work better with a more forward saddle position -- am I right? At any rate, my principal beef with very high bars, even if the bar allows one to bend over to use the important back and gluteus muscles, is that, when I sit up, I feel as if the front end is very vague. -- ------------------------- Patrick Moore, Albuquerque, NM For professional resumes, contact Patrick Moore, ACRW http://resumespecialties.com/index.html ------------------------- A billion stars go spinning through the night Blazing high above your head; But in you is the Presence that will be When all the stars are dead.
