Hi riders !
As the tittle said, I'm wondering what things really define your bike, it can be anything.
Personnaly, the main thing is the bar height, if it's not perfect, I don't feel good, after a lot of spacers combination tries, I discover a 2 mm spacer make a big difference, not really for cruising around but for manuals, the balance and loopout point change and I don't feel good if the setting is not perfect, I even notice a 1mm difference for that...
Same for bar angle, I like it a tiny bit forward, a bit more room feels better and help a bit for nose tricks, but nut too much or the bike nosedive like shit.
A last thing is my seat height, sounds stupid but my 3 inches of post had save my ass many times on manuals.
i explain, at the loopout point, instead of jumping and stupidly run after my bike, I just sit down and the front wheel get down, having that safety make me alot more confident on manuals, especially while doing them in the traffic or while rolling fast.
