I suppose it depends on one's locale. When I bought my first mountain 
bike (back when dinosaurs ruled the earth) I very soon sawed the 
"bullmoose" bars to make them much narrower. Our local forest preserve 
has some pretty dense understory.

Interestingly (and sadly) that's changed. Overpopulation of White Tailed 
Deer has decimated the understory, removing habitat for many understory 
species. Sadly, we very seldom hear the beautiful song of the Wood 
Thrush any more.

White Tailed Deer need to be controlled. But the "They're so pretty!" 
crowd has actually filed lawsuits to stop efforts to scientifically 
control them.
