Aerofly II handlebar alignment

The bars are not setup as intended by the manufacture in this photo, the proper way to set them up (rather this helps your comfort or not);

  1. Remove Bar Tape so you have access to the raw bar

  2. Find the level section/flat section on the drops (see image below)

  3. Once you have found that section using an accurate level and on a level floor, position the bars so the drops are level or within reason.

  4. Adjust hood levers on the ramps so they are comfortable to you

Just for the record, when I was dialing in my optimal hood position I rode without bar tape for a little while. I hope this helps with your journey as hand numbness sucks, keep in mind that you also may be too low also causing too much pressure.
