Interesting. I really figured that fit is fit is fit and if a bike fits, then itl can be comfortably ridden slow or fast using the same setup. I cut my cables to fit perfectly with the setup that works for me, so I guess if I were to frequently change the stem height, I would need to cable the bike when the stem is high.
Huh, hadnt thought about this before.
