It certainly makes for a comfy ride.

I'd be interested in trying them. <BR/>It seems the deep drops aren't a great choice for most compact frames as the drops usually end up at the top of the fork crown. As you rightly point out, fit is proportionate to fitness/flexibility.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for reading.strangelifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03792950121782834745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1321687509689861668.post-22285676447231696992007-05-19T12:40:00.000-05:002007-05-19T12:40:00.000-05:00FSA has a new shallow drop with a really bitchin' ...FSA has a new shallow drop with a really bitchin' radius to it. I am riding a pair of the Ritchey WCS Evolution bars right now on my Campy bike (yeah, I know... I'm a spoiled son-of-a-bitch). The fit in the hands is great. Between the semi aero bar tops and then the nice drop, those bars rock. The FSA bar has a great feel in the hands too, but I don't have a pair yet. My easton bars don't feel quite as good, but they are still good bars... but a much deeper drop with the old Modolo-type bend at the top. <BR/><BR/>Yes, I am a big proponent of fit that makes sense. If you are riding a couple times a week and only for a few miles, why the hell do you need to be stretched out flat on your bike? Ride comfortably and you'll ride more. After that, maybe you'll develop the flexibility to ride that low in the drops all the time. I space out my steerer tube so that I can raise and/ or lower my bars to match my fitness/ flexibility level. <BR/><BR/>Ride comfortable... please.Tim Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00656450355435181157noreply@blogger.com
