Now on the road bike it is Drop bars because that is the way road bike is set up. Tandem and MTB both have flat bars but in this poll we are taliking about road bikes. So I am 50/50 in fact. 2 Road bikes and the MTB and Tandem.
Now I would never put a drop bar onto an MTB. They are meant for Offroad and I have enough trouble controlling the things with 27" bars- Let alone doing it with my head between my Knees at the same time
