Hills are the main problem when riding with uprights.
The other incompatibility goes the other way. The bent rider has to lollygag on the flats. Although this is a nice problem to have.
High speed pacelines are a compatability problem, but if the group riding is more a loose bunch, the bent rider (on a high racer) doesn't really have much trouble fitting in.
