Like the title says, am I too stretched out? I feel comfortable on the hoods but often other riders will comment that I'm too stretched out. In the drops I've never felt bad either, but today using the trainer for the first time, I felt like I had a lot of weight on my hands while in the drops. I guess it feels different while riding on the road. Am I reaching too far?

When I was frame shopping I was between the medium or the large, and went with the large because of the taller head tube. The medium would've required a half a foot of spacers to be comfortable for me.


edit: damn you forum software for not allowing me to fix the typo in the title!
