Cannondale Supersix Evo ultegra
Hello All,
i need some help. I recently tried the new Supersix Evo Ultegra and it was amazing, but I can’t get with the handle bars and shifting. It’s a physical problem I have that stems from a back injury. I need the breaking and shifting to be with straight handlebars because I can’t bend forward for very long. The bike shop said they can not mod the bike to have straight handlebars because of the shifting. Were they bull****ting me?
anyways -
i really love the feel of riding that bike. can someone please recommend a bike that has the same Frame/feel/speed but also has straight handlebars? I mainly bike for commuting. 2-3 miles per day in a major city.
thanks!

If you like Cannondale and want to buy a new commuter bike (since this is the Commuting thread) with a flat bar you may want to try their Quick series; https://www.cannondale.com/en-ca/bik...ku=c31100m102x

And don't rule out an aluminum frame with a carbon fork.

My commuting ride is much different than my exercise/ leisure rides. I chose a steel bike for commuting because I wanted something a bit beefier, more durable. But that’s me.
