Well unfortunately I don't think I have time to make these adjustments before I fly to DC. I think I will have my dad ship my bike out there and find a bike shop that will take the time to help me with this minor problem.

Golly I should ahve said this earlier but I sort of spaced out. raising my bars makes it sort of uncomfortable on my rear end and my body angle funny. Maybe it would be something I would have to get used to but I have my seat positioned just perfectly and the reach is super crazy.

I will also look into the technomatic. it looks nice and everyone seems to endorse it, so it must function ie hold the handlebars.

Sorry I am bound and determined to stick with this frame for a a few years. It is, I don't know how to say it but, steadfast and honest. A strange way to describe a bike but it is like a good friend and that is how I would describe one.

Yes, higher bars can increase the weight on the seat, lower bars increases pressure on hands arms.

Gosh, the perfect bike fit, it's always something, eh?

Sounds like a fit appointment is in the future for you and your frame.
