Bikes: NOT a fixie

If you're moving from a flat bar bike into drop style bars there's always a little body conditioning that comes into play, but it becomes more comfortable after a short time.

Man, you're real, real close to having your rig tweaked; try a 70 or 60mm stem just to see if you're cramped... if not, then go for it!

It is starting to feel better and better each day. I guess I was just shocked from the difference (duh!) but I'm adjusting pretty fast. I'll get a 70mm stem soon and some reflecive tape to cover up the logos, and get a compact bar eventually.

Thank you all for your help and patience! I think I'm all set from here.
