Hi all,
I saw a diagram online of the different handlebar types showing that the reach of each handlebar is a bit different. Does this still apply to the newest models? I find it odd that there is nothing listed on the official website about this, considering reach is an important factor for bike comfort.
That being said, I tested an H bar at the store yesterday and I thought it was very comfortable. It was a bit awkward to steer, though, and riding out of the saddle for hills/sprints wasn’t as easy as my drop bar bike. Would it even be worth it for me to try the M bar at the chance the closer reach will help me have a more natural experience? I’m 5’10” with an inseam of 31”.
