I'd love to continue the internet diagnoses about problems which no longer exist, but at least try to maintain some consistency.

Just cut your steerer as short as possible, get somewhere around a 5-6" saddle to bar drop, and HTFU and use it. Flexibility, and all that crap is crap. Just keep riding and you'll get used to it, and you'll be faster. This is possibly the worst advise you will ever get, but it's my advise.
