Works for me :-bd
But it doesn't always feel like I'm cruising...

Swapped bar on my short travel trail bike. 10 mm more rise, 20 mm wider, one degree more up and one more back sweep.
Still amazed by the difference.
Sometimes it only takes little.

I did that about 3 weeks ago on similar bike.
So much better in every circumstance.

Luckily I only have 1 other bike which would benefit from the same treatment.
