My commuter bike is a flat-bar road bike, so it's set up kind of "semi-upright". My hands support a bit of my torso weight, and it's a comfortable neutral posture. I almost never get out of the saddle while commuting, and the gears are sufficient for the predictable hills on my route. It's only 2 or 3 miles. If I were to go any more upright I'd need a lower set of gears and would be too slow in traffic on the hills. I should be good once I rebuild the riding muscles that haven't been worked in 2 years.
