Oh and here's a better pic of my setup.
Is that the Snake version?

Tornova looks good. Is the Rotundo comfortable with the hoods down there? Works on my steel bike but modern shifters don't seem to be made for that setup.

I personally didn't have any discomfort regarding where the hoods were on the Rotundo but I did spend the majority of my rides with my hands on the drops.

They're the Chameleon. The Snake is more like a traditional, deep bend. The Bull is similar to mine, but less drop.

So, between this post ^ and taking the pic, I finally noticed that my saddle has inched its way back to full setback again. I have no idea why/how it does this. The correct position is around 1/3 of the way forward from full back, but somehow it worms its way back. It's a slow creep too, because I never notice it unless it's by accident. The saddle is torqued exactly to spec too. :foo:

Carbon or assembly paste (eg. Park SAC-1) can help if you're not already using.
