does anyone know of a good rule of thumb for handlebar width?
or is it purely personal taste?
I seem to remember reading somewhere that the proper set up
should keep your hand placement in the same plane as your shoulders, not too
far inside and not too wide.
I'm riding 36cm dropbars on my road frame, and will be installing the same size
drops on my track frame... it's a little narrow for my body size, but for some
reason it feels right, compared to the 42cm bullhorns i used to ride.
maybe it's the tighter control. i have noticed soreness in my shoulders,
but that could be due to the fact that i've just crossed the 30 year mark.
i realize some of you are riding seriously chopped flat bars and such.
any opinions?
