If you are comfortable on the bike it must fit well. I've got the bar on my bike set as low as it can go which is about 4" below the seat. With the stem flipped and the washers moved under the stem the bar might be even wth the seat, I don't think it could go any higher without a different angled stem. My other training bike has the bars about 1" lower than the Roubaix.
