Handlebar alignment
I bought a used, older Specialized Allez. Based on how the bike was set up when I got it, it’s clear the previous owner wasn’t much into minor adjustments. So, I’m slowly trying to get the bike dialed in to my personal liking, which includes the handlebars. FWIW, they are the Ritchey 6016 T-6 Alloy drop bars. They have ergonomic drops similar to the one pictured below. And among all my bikes, this is actually the first one I’ve owned with ergonomic drops. Understanding that final adjustments are based more on my personal liking rather than aesthetics. My question is this: That small flat part at the lower end of the drops that I’ve indicated with the arrows…for ergonomic alignment, is that short flat supposed to be level? — Dan
