Mornin'
I'm trying to get my wife's bike (and mine) a slightly better fit now that we're a bit older and a lot less fit than we were.
I'm running a long stem and riser bars, she's running a short stem and flat bars but is a little stretched out while I feel slightly squashed.
I had flat bars once in the 90s but have had risers since as that was the trend and then what subsequent bikes came with.
But what difference do they make to the control and handling of the bike?
I'm debating swapping bars with the wife to see how we get on.
