It’s all personal preference, but as a fellow 5’11” dude that runs 8.25 bars and a 21” TT… yeah it’s too big (for me).

I love the feel of it personally.

There is no right or wrong here. If it feels good when you ride it, then it’s right. If you feel like it limits you in some way, or just doesn’t feel good to ride, that’s when it’s wrong.

Does it feel comfortable? That’s all that matters.

I feel like the fulcrum would be better suited with shorter bars.

As others have said, it’s what you like. I’ve known people better than me who were 5’6″ and had 10″ rise bars. And I know others who are well over 6′ that don’t like talking bars at all.
