Would there be any good reason, other than it looks cool, to go to a lay back post on a ASR-5?

I have a masterpiece layback that I don't like, would rather have a straight model.

There are two.

1) The bike doesn't fit
2) Effective seat tube angle is too steep.

It looks cool is neither true nor a good reason. Reason no 2 is really the only positive reason for a layback.

Bike fit? Go get properly fit, you'd be amazed at how much better it feels.
