8" rise on the low drags? 9" is the new 8". HB needs to get it together.  Same with the curved down tube.

Well, Mat Wilhelm is riding a prototype signature frame with straight tubes, but it probably won't be out in 2015...

And they have 2-piece Bama bars in 30"x9"... the Low Drags are basically Hoffman's personal bars so it's the size he likes.
