So this Raliegh bike I got earlier this year is the first bicycle I've ever had in my entire life that has this back & neck bending flat top downward curved euro-racer style handlebar on it and I'm likely about to catch flack for saying this, but I really hate it. One day I hope to upgrade it to a chopper/BMX style handlebar like I had on a Huffy BMX-style bike I got back when I was ten which looked something like this.:

Okay, to be fair there was a time I didn't like the hybrid bike type handlebar either, which I'd never used until receiving another bike around the age of sixteen, but I eventually came to terms with it and can use such without issue. I think my hang up with this euro-racer handlebar is the issue of having to both lean forward and tilt head up to seemingly hang on as the sadist who came up with this concept must have intended. Sure the aerodynamics are likely in favor of this highly unnatural posture, which doubtless keeps chiropractors in business globally, just not confident at present that my body can come to terms with this unnatural positioning.
