Depends on what you mean... I can use all positions, with the extra bar, that I can use without the bar. I never ever use the hoods position (the brake levers aren't even positioned to allow that) so, that's not possible with or without. So the answer is: yes - for me.

Me too, but the problem there is that there aren't any disc brake mounts on the LHT...
If anyone knows of a way to mount a front disc brake without disc brake mounts, please let me know!
