my basebar is not adjustable. all one piece.


so i should try to lower my head more but keep my eyes up?
Yes. Imagine that you're trying to touch your hands with your chin,that should bring your neck down and 'turtle' your head. Try to focus on the road about 10-15 feet ahead of you and if you need to look up, look through the top of your sunglasses.
