here is a good comparison

the first pix is my bike with the nitto 176's with a 140mm drop

the second pix is my bike with the cinelli 66's with a 160mm drop

How low can you go????

I have a co worker that has some kind of
soma track bar with 180 mm of drop. It's
freakin interesting.

It looks like your reach to the hoods has been reduced with the Cinelli bars. Is that true?

not in reality-

the cinellis do have a bit shorter reach than the nittos (probably 5mm)- but my stem also went down a little over 1 cm- so I net out with the same reach as before- or nearly so-

lets say I can not tell a difference while on the bike-

I think the distance that I was from the bike in the two pix makes the difference look greater than it really is- the pix with the nittos I was back about 75 feet from the bike- zoomed in- the pix with the cinellis I was only about 6 feet away-

Critic? I'm a fan of Dirt's Kirk.

I'm just looking out for its best interests, like when a girl asks "How does this look?". Girl, it looks great--but what's with the sequin shoes?
