This is a pro criterium in Dijon,France. The picture illustrates the variation in the bar position of the riders. The rider in the foreground has quite a bit of slope, and the Lotto rider behind him has his bars adjusted as Bikeolgist is advocating. I think it all comes down to personal preference and bar shape. Some slope to the bar,allows the wrist to be in a more neutral position with a slight bend of the elbows when down on the drops.


Back to the OT-- Nice bikes!
