I was already headed in that direction and found it to work well, looks bizarre but there it is.
Yep, even with the bars that far up.
Had to switch to a Brooks clamp and plain chrome SP to get there which I am fine with, never have any slipping issues despite their poor rep.
The springs were pushing me onto the bars too much.
Crazy, right?

I would consider that suitable for a gelding.
considering that when one is seated upright the springs compress, my first hunch would be to have the saddle slightly nose down.
only one bike designed for an upright position- there I started off level.
