just don't think i'd be able to fit my cane creek crosstop lever on there before it flattens out. especially without having a problem with the stem getting in the way. anyone running that setup with wing shaped tops with a cross style / two finger lever / whatever you want to call it??

That's a great question, I'm wondering too. I just changed from 25.4 to a 31.8 stem and these FSA Wing Pro drops. The ergo tops are so much more comfortable for cruising around, even though only the drops are taped. Drops are nice for doing some laps or sprinting around. Also running a Tektro crosstop lever, mounted sideways right next to the stem (same as Cane Creek and Specialized).


I also have a set of the Soma Urban Pursuit bullhorns, which I'm about to sell.




I love bullhorns for climbing, so I want to pickup a new set of bullhorns with flat ergo tops for more comfort while cruising. I'm debating between the Profile Designs T2 Wing (that jhaber posted), or the previous model Easton Delta Force (sibaudio posted their newest version). Price is similar, and both will accomodate my brake lever.
