My Atlantis will shortly have it's 8th birthday & I'm still tinkering. Going to try Silver bar ends (been using Suntour Bar Cons forever) & chubby Tektro brake levers.

Racks'n'bags alone can occupy me for countless hours. dougP On Feb 17, 5:05 pm, Angus <angusle...@sbcglobal.net> wrote: > My name is Angus and I am a "tinkerer." > > I can't leave well enough alone. > > I'm constantly trying to make everything better (although it doesn't > always work out that way). > > Nothing is perfect...everything always needs improving. > > Many people may think this is sad...but I've come to accept it.
