hey thanks for the tip! but its a bit pricey for what i was looking at. id love to have the all-plane-adjustable feature, but i think i may be abble to live without it...theres a set of clipons off ebay for about AUD$50. might give them a whirl.

have you (or anyother acers) tried to angle the standard handle bar downwards? just to get them a bit lower?

I thought I posted a photo but alas not. Here is another view, not close up but I have marked where I found the brake line hit the top of the forks.

Yeah just didn't rotate the bar quite as far as I would have liked (to the point where the brake line was touching the fork).

The new position is way more comfortable than the original for me.
