I flipped my stem the other day and started a thread about it...
My hood's are actually useable now! I don't feel like I'm sitting straight up. I should have taken before and after pics because I think when I'm on the hoods now, I'm pretty close to what I was before in the drops.
I had to (and still have to) fidgit with my seat. My boy's complained so I lowered the seatpost and moved the seat forward just a touch as well as adjusted the tilt of the seat so that it points about a notch downward from before. My back isn't complaining but I still have to find the sweet spot or my arms will start numbing up.
I did a easy 15 mile ride today and everything felt o.k. so far.
Now if they only made some sort of mirror that I could put above my front wheel so that I didn't have to bend my neck up so much in the drops!
