I once read someone here call a bike fugly because it had ergo road drops and I wonder if this is a general opinion on SSFG.
I don't want track drops, sorry I'm not Mr. Cool
1) Why ask the internet what we think?
2) Would you feel bad riding "road" rims, spokes, tubes, or tires?
3) What feels and fits better will make you a better rider.
4) If it makes you feel any better,
6-day Madison racers use road bars and even ergo road bars.
