Basically, it's a matter of individual fit, which you won't know until you try it for a few miles. (Yah, that was really helpful, wasn't it?)

Actually, that was indeed very helpful . You're funny after my own heart. I have read much about T vs pear. I "thought" I knew what that meant, but was wondering again reading some other threads. I did look at them (well, many times now) on Wallbike and I can see what you mean. I'm kinda thinkig about ordering both to see side by side first hand. I will have to call Bill. Thx.
