I held that bar in my hands today and it is calling to me!!! Liza, that was your first suggestion when I was going through bar angst a while ago.

i got shims on my brake levers (yay!)

As soon as I figure out my best stem angle* (I've got an adjustable now) I'm ready to get a 31.8 stem so I can get that bar...it's perfect!! (the FSA wing pro compact)

There is one called shallow..that's a different bar from the compact it seems...is it?

*how DOES one figure out which stem to buy?
