You haven't read the thread - that's his sprinting stance.
This is the most baffling thread I've read in a long time. The OP sprints with his hands together - the most unnatural lung-constricting no-leverage position imaginable, hates aluminum handlebars, never uses more than one hand position, has had his stem and handlebar fuse together "stupid" fast, and doesn't want flex with the stem due to wide handlebars.
Also, when risers first came out they were all 30cm.
I'm going to pretend this thread has never existed because I'm feeling a dark void opening up in my mind that's threatening to crush my puny psyche.
