When I bought my 7.2 I had a sore neck and shoulders after the first ride.
Like you, I considered raising the handlebars. After more riding and being aware of my posture I'm fine.
I love this bike.

Hi. Thanks for all the advice and suggestions. I went to another bike store and talked to someone, and I think what I might do it to change out the handlebar stem (which is currently a 100mm length). So, maybe going to something like an 80mm will help with the reach issue. Besides that, I love the bike! (Oh, and the seat post is really out an inch if you include the reflector).
