I'm curious as to what folks think about this:
I have a Trek 7.4 FX, where the saddle, when at its "ideal height", is about 3/4 of an inch below the level of the handlebars. I also have bar ends.

So, are there any advantages to taking out 1 spacer from the head set, thereby lowering the handlebar height? I thought I heard a really good bike mechanic say something about having more stability?

Thanks in advance for your responses.
Best regards
