In terms of gripping the handlebar, it depends where your hands are. If they are furthest away from me, it does turn turn my wrist in, which became uncomfortable on first two rides after noticing. That is the only significant difference in FEEL I can attest to.

Obviously it looks striking, but it seems I don’t spend a lot of time looking at my handlebars when I’m riding.

Honestly, most posters on here are friendly, helpful, and very informative. I guess these two just looking for a rise?
