one thing I can't stand is a nice bike like that, but a TOTALLY incorrect saddle position.

that's really all in what the rider is comfortable with. there is no "right" way to do it.

angled down does put unneeded stress on the wrong places...but, if that's what the rider is comfortable with...who the **** are you to say it's wrong?

This is true, but my wrists/shoulders/neck sure seem to thank me for having a level seat position.

it's straight up....wrong. I have NEVER seen ANY properly setup bicycle with an angled down seating position. Some things are subjective....some aren't

got tired of the drops to just do a few blocks a day bent way over. i have flop chops already sitting around and these are nice & shiny

The gist, i'm lazy and i don't care if it looks silly, it's the brake lever that's out of place
