Here you go!

I can't seem to open those, I've never heard of that file format. Sorry.

Apple iOS, high efficiency image files..., not so efficient for sharing.

StockRider, please teach me, how did you do that?
I don't like the HEIC format, but haven't found an easy way to convert them.

anotherCB, I used an online conversion tool (https://convertio.co/heic-jpg/), there are quite a few out there. Some appear to shift the color/saturation a bit from the original image. There are many details here: https://www.cnet.com/news/tools-bridge-between-apple-heic-and-jpeg-photos/. Including how to change storage settings on your device..., that changes the amount of space taken up by photos as well though.

If you're using the Photos app on a Mac, you can export the photos to jpeg for posting. (File > Export > Export Photos)

That's a pretty big difference in comfort from a small 30mm? change. Have you heard of https://cycle-ergo.com/ you can input your measurements and custom bike measurements too I think, and it'll show you a graphical representation of the change in riding position for small changes.

Alan F., yes I use that site occasionally, have selected risers for my GS based on it! And I agree those extra 30 mm and less of a down angle make a big difference.

Stockrider, you are a genius. I went to my iPhone camera settings to Camera-> Formats -> Camera Capture and changed the settings from High Efficiency to Most Compatible. Now all my pictures are saved as jpegs on my phone! Need a SOHC forum to learn about my apple product!!
