and the reason{s} you do or don't

Currently have set of D&Ds...Quality product but

just a little too short for me.

I find myself still leaniing forward enough to give me

a pain in my back between my shoulders.

Always searching for the best ergos (for me).

6'2";205;34/35" sleeve; 32" in-seam.

Thanks for any input...

edit: I have the faster Galaxy Blue (that'd be an '05) (Thanks for the reminder, Groo)

I had Helis on my '05, and picked up a set of the rotated MCLs when a forum member was selling them. It seems I get less pressure on the outer edge of my palms than I did before, so I'm sticking with them, and sold the Helis.

 
I'm on my second set of MCL risers. First was the rotated ones, which worked great with the Corbin saddle that came with the bike. Then I had Rick Mayer build me a saddle that is 1" higher than stock, which made me lean forward a bit and more weight on my hands. So, I sold 'em off here and picked up the standard MCL's. They're taller than the Heli's that came with the bike and put me more upright, giving me good comfort again.
