its totally not the same... the leverage ain't there and... Trust me before i SPEND MONEY ON PARTS.... I definitely moved my bars forward and trust it does not feel the same.

Why do you insist on writing this over and over. This is in insult. Stop being so arrogant. You are  smart, you know some things, don't abuse it. Have an opinion, but stop being so pushy! I doubt any one likes this attitude or fines it helpful.

The 35mm reach gives knee clearance needed with whiplashes. ;)




The rider makes the trick happen, not the bike, but sometimes having the right part makes things easier.  -_-

I write it over and over because it is true, and correct. I'm not saying it to insult you, or to puff up my chest. Calm down. I'm not abusing anything, nor am I putting anyone down. I'll gladly leave this forum if my presence makes you that uncomfortable. However, you are taking things out of context and overreacting.

Moving your handlebars changes upsweep, backsweep and rise every so slightly, it is negligible, especially when you're only talking about 9mm. Example, a 9" tall bar originally parallel to the steerer at 75 degrees will rise from the ground by .085" Not sure how much you've thought about it but given the same stem rise/drop but just a longer reach by 9mm you will rise the bar by the same amount. So rise is a nonissue. Sweep is another thing, however still very very negligible.

How does your body weight and rest of the bike know which path your bars take to get to your steerer? Its simply changing reach higher, than right down at the level of the stem. Your handlebars could make a figure eight and the grips would still be in the same position. You are still steering around the same point, your hands are still in the same position, your body weight is still in the same position. I could go on about this in more detail but it seems as if you don't care to listen anyways so I digress.

Its nice to see these are selling.
