RE: Bikes with teh rider a lot lower down would be a far better idea, no?

I have ridden both, and the lower center of gravity has no real handling benefit, in my case. Slower in fact, in that steering is now done only with the front wheel, and jumping is out, as is body english, for the most part.

Surely it is more stable physically, granting your point, but since one is already balanced, and stable in motion, it makes little sense to trade the ability to use upright body weight to assist power, verses just lower torso only and working from a less agile seated position.

Most guys choose the lower position bikes only because of body problems.
