  I wonder if the toteless models, equipped with the adjusters, such as yours
are pitched slightly higher since they are shorter in length than the toted
models? If they were pitched at 45 degress with the length that they are,
there might be insufficient room to make a comfortable grip.

  I'm gonna email my pal, WeeWee, and ask him to measure his, which is the
same as yours (it's also a good excuse to rip his arse for sending me a
postcard of Michelangelo's David's crotch from his recent visit to Florence).
I'll let you know what comes of it. The angle, not the crotch, that is.
