Does that give most flexibility to adjust bars up and down? do you have to figure out height and cut off excess or can it just jut up some?
I too ride relatively upright. My LBS installed an uncut fork and it looks like this. On a touring specific frame, might not need this many spacers. Not real pretty, but totally functional.
