> feature a 10 degree back sweep and 5 degree upsweep
Maybe this is a dumb question...but why do bar makers advertise back and upsweep? Isn't this measuring the same angle? You can translate backsweep into upsweep and vice versa by rotating the bars. Like if you plotted this on a graph where the center is the stem and the outside is where the handlebar ends, wouldn't that be your true angle? Or is there something there I'm missing?
