At this point I certainly agree with 31.8 being more comfortable, but, when you've already bought a complete bike with a 35mm stem (and they seem to be more and more prevalent in the OEM space), it would be nice to have the option of just buying a bar that fits what you need, instead of having to buy a new stem or deal with shims. Anyways, I'm just getting a bit ornery in my old age over quibbles. I'm pretty sure I've got enough spare parts in the shed to do what I want, but there should be options damnit!
