>>1222726When the handlebar would be like you propose, i would have to bend my wrist upwards to reach the brake. I don't think you can compare that handle with a modern road/racing one.
Right now i can grab the top if i'm cruising in comfy mode, i only have to reach down in the city, and then my hand basically falls into the brakes by itself.
When the handlebag is attached, it's on the front, i have to fix the attachment a bit tighter or it goes back like that by itself.

But yes, i'm not sure i want my next tourer like that.
>>1223046I'm plannimg a transalp in september (Verona to Augsburg), so i'm lighting up everything. I even bought a helmet so i can attach a light. Got reflective stickers as well that i'll place all over my rig. Not sure if i should bring a reflective vest.
Pic related, muh saddle, the default saddle was a torture device that brought constant pain and tingling dick syndrome.
