As a bike fitter, I was always totally against these sort of integrated stem-bar combos. I must say, as stems on mtb’s have become ultra short, there is no longer any rise to be gotten there, and the biggest rise in bars is about 0mm-50mm, so it might become more viable for these.
Still, you lose sweep and roll adjustment.
