If you feel good and are not having problems, I wouldn't change a thing. Of course, I guess there is also the possibility that you are not achieving optimum power with your position.
Great looking bike. Really catches the eye.
I'm about 10-15 mm behind the spindle. I've tried in front, on, and behind the spindle and definitely prefer it there. Thanks for the compliment on the bike.
