Handlebar Comfort - Compact Or Anatomic?
After my last post regarding flat top bars I was wondering if there is a big difference in comfort between a compact drop and Anatomic drop?
I've always used Anatomic but I've never been one to ride much in the drops. Would a compact drop make much difference to the comfort of riding in the drops? Or is it just a matter of riding in the drops and adapting to that position?
As always thanks for your thoughts/advice
