That would keep more weight over the front while descending with curves. Time will tell.
Yep

I had them on a SOMA Wolverine and even with a stretched out-ish fit I wanted to be out there. In the end I sold that bike and bars.

I'm just wondering if you are in effect attempting to get right back to where you wee on your FSA drop bars? Just thinking out loud.
