More on raising handlebars

[Guest trispeed]

It's also good to acknowledge that a more upright position is better for control and precision in cornering. The ONLY reason for a crouched position is for aerodynamic drag reduction, oh... except for those who think they look cool laying flat on the tank, I guess that's a good reason for some. We were all beginners at one time.

Try a supermotard bike, then put clip-ons on it and you'll understand what I mean.
