So I received my Alu high 12 & 16 sweeps on Friday. In the hand off the bike the 16's definitely hold most neutrally.
I have fitted the 12 to my Tracer Intense and 16 to my Stanton Slackline and swapped the stems so now have the longer 70mm and 8 degree rise (I didn't realise it was that long until I measured it!) stem on the Slackline and the shorter 40mm with some rise on my Tracer, the idea was to see if this improved Mt Tracer (although not ridden more than around the garden, but it felt good).
A brief ride just now on the Slackline in the slush (its snowing) and the longer stem made a significant making it much harder to pop the front up to manual through rollers, but small drops (less than a foot) were fine.
Very little to say as of yet, but I did feel more relaxed across my shoulders, but at only 30mins it was a quick easy blast (one that had highlighted problems with comfort on the Tracer with Havoc's).
I'll feed back more after Xmas when I should get a few rides in on both bikes.
