Sorry about the hijack, but really?? I've always had my bars below the saddle, but I've mostly been on-road. I'm a beginner mountain biker, and just recently switched to higher bars on my mtb, and it made a world of difference. No more feeling like I'm about to pitch over! They must be an inch or so above the saddle now, more when I set the saddle down for more technical riding.
