Yes. Because I don't know I want the drop bar, and I like the option of replacing the flat bar with something like the Surly bar. I also wanted to try and ride it a long way, but I always see that being done on drop bars.

Then, I read people say, oh, don't get a hybrid they're dying. Yet, outside of a hybrid I don't want a cruiser.

Plus, sometimes the straight bars hurt my hands, so I wanted to switch them.
