All of my road bikes are fit to the Classic Guimard/LeMond system as I've mentioned in previous posts. Same basic position for decades of racing & club rides on several different bikes where efficiency, power and control rule. As Campag has noted one must bow to the lack of flexibility that comes w/ advanced age. Saddle height, position over the cranks and reach remain the same on my last build but drop is reduced. Pics of builds 20 years apart.

My town bike is set-up for plootering about picking up groceries, it is suitable to ride with a recreational rider out for a bike ride and takes the seriousness out of what is just a childish enjoyment.

Horses for courses as they say, and it's an excuse to own more than one bike.
