Further, it's cool that they are designing a bike for the Madison.


They are a new take on UCI-legal "Sphinx" bars.

I've never been a Madison rider, but I'd imagine that one wouldn't want such a shallow bar with little difference between the tops and the drops. I thought that the rider that's up on the tops and about to sling the relief rider in would want to be up a little higher. But, I could be wrong.

Madison and a lot of enduro setups really aren't that far off aggressive road positions, they're not super uncomfortable like sprinty ones
