If I were going to try this bar I'd need a new frame--more stack--to accompany it. My 50mm riser fits in a five degree roll range, but the window for getting the desired steering characteristics is probably < two degrees. Too far forward, steering feels square; too far back--not square enough. This should be independent of fit, presuming one is in the ballpark of reach +/ stack. Try using bar roll to tune steering. 16d backsweep isn't a fair comparison as its backsweep is measured further from center--you know this
