I like the orange Speedsleev bag, nice addition. I now have these on all my road bikes and gravel bike. Love em for the simplicity and lack of movement.
If you rotate those bars down so the levers are even with the ground, you may be able to ride in the drops and access the levers easier. Those bars look like the ends were designed to be closer to level with the ground. If its a fit issue though, the current setup makes sense.
Thank you for the tip, I appreciate it. The bars are Daija Far Bars. Yesterday I logged about 20 miles in the city and 10 on a hardpack gravel towpath and things weren't too bad. I am close to dialed in but still fiddling a little with the fit. I will definitely give that a try.
The Speedsleev bag is great. Helped someone with a flat yesterday and it was so much more organized than a traditional bag. I will be adding these to my other bikes as the need arises as well.
