Thought I'd bring this up for some lively discussion...
While the boardtrack look is really cool and most of us are fans of the style, does anyone actually find this positioning comfortable on a bicycle? I can understand how it would work on a motorized vehicle because you're legs are basically stationary and you are trying to become more aerodynamic during races, but this doesn't seem to apply as much on a bike.
When thinking about the positioning it would seem better if the BB and crank were positioned more towards the back of the bike if you were going to lean forward so far to reach the handlebars....but maybe not.
Anyone else ponder these things about boardtrack bikes?
