Robert, I'm not familure with the bow you'll be using, but with my Vectrix I found that by making a template of theWolf Jaw and putting it under the original (actually doubling it as in this pic) one, it allows the bow to lean more forward so as not to crowd you. Also, unless it makes you feel safer, (because it doesn't MAKE you safer,I would fold that sit bar up under the seat, keeping it out of the way for the reason you mentioned. Don't forget to file those grippers.
