Hi all-
I wanted to know if anyone here had any experiences with Nitto Dove bars? If so, I’d be interested in your thoughts. How did you like them? Do they have as much backward length as the Albas? Similar sweep angle? Enough for a forward position? Hard to find much info online.
I’m an upright bar man, but seem to be having trouble with pressure on my palms. I’m currently running VO Porteurs on my SimpleOne. They are nice bars and I like the width, but the pressure on my hands is usually noticeable. I’ve tried them with different stems from 9 to 12cm and moved my seat back a bit further, but I can’t discern too much of a difference. Seems like Doves would allow me to get the bars a bit higher and fit ergon grips. I’ve also tried albas on a number of bikes, but my narrow shoulders don’t agree with the width.
Thanks!
Eric
