This weekend, after two long rides, I said **** it. I hate these bars, they just dont work for lots of saddle/bar drop.
Yeah, I don't have a lot of drop. I just measured and it's 19.5cm measuring vertically from the top of the saddle to top of the drop section of the bars.

The camera angle makes the bars/hoods look like they extend A LOT further than they really do. They really only extend maybe 2-3CM over the hub.


BTW, the bars are Zipp Service Corse SL "Short and Shallow" 40cm
