i road it with bullhorns similar in style to the nitto rb-021. just a different brand. So it had a bit more of a dip down to it than the owns I sould get. When i stretched all the way out on them it felt good, but when i had my hands on the elbows closer to me, which is where i ride most of the time in the city, it felt a little tight, at least to what I'm used to. (but again the frame I'm riding is way to big for me).
