#track drops

To this day I have, currently in my possession, these bars.

LDG Risers

Nitto B125AA Aluminum Track Drops

Nitto B105 Aluminum Road Drops

Cinelli Mash Bullhorns

I've come to the conclusion after riding each other for about a week, some more, that bullhorns are surely the best. Maybe not all bullhorns, but Cinelli Mash to be exact. I haven't felt so comfortable riding with any other handlebars. They may not be the most aesthetically pleasing (although I can't stand 99% of bullhorns, these are actually pretty nice looking), they are by far the best.

Road drops weren't too bad but weren't the most comfortable. Track drops were even worse in the comfort category and actually made my wrists hurt from time to time. Risers are my second favorite, specifically because of the upright position and how wide they are.

Now, this is my opinion obviously. Someone told me recently that regular road drops are too wide to ride downtown traffic. Obviously they didn't realize that most people get track drops that are ACTUALLY for their body. I'm a tiny dude and I ride 40CM and they are definitely not too big for traffic, considering I ride daily during rush hour.

why so many people keep telling me to stick with my track drops. Most of the people I talk to who have an opinion on track drops ride a front brake so it's much easier for them to stop in emergencies.

I ride brakeless, have for a while now, and it is not safe, nor is the bike stable at all when riding that way with track drops haha.

Also, track drops are not comfortable at all. I love them, don't get me wrong, but I will take safety, stopping power, stability, and comfort in let's say, bullhorns or risers, over aesthetics any day.
