nah... i get a few hand positions.

i can get down in an aero tuck and i jam my thumbs up and back into the tubes. this way i can point my fingers straight out in front to split the wind and attain an even more aero profile, and the usual fixed gear - zen - connectedness feeling through the drivetrain is multiplied ten fold because my thumbs become one with the tubing.

i can also hold the stem, the flats, the shoulders, the bottom part or the top part of the tubing, and i can cross my hands left over right, effectively doubling the number of hand positions.

try that with regular chop and flops... it doesn't work nearly as well.
