Its not pronounced but it worked. I don't ride much more than 30 miles at a time these days. My bars are all set below my saddle and I'm older and pretty over weight these days but I don't have problems with my hands or shoulders or neck.

I think fit is what ever you are comfortable with. Just get out and ride...
That is all I was saying! It is just that I took it to an extreme and it worked for me and I have seen it work for others and that is why I say TRY IT and YOU DECIDE!
