I have the bullmoose Loscos on my Gus so the flex is actually comfortable
for me. And I do prefer the flare and width of the Losco over the Bosco
since I have wide shoulders. One nit though: I don't like how short the
grip area is relative to the Nittos.

Meanwhile I was reading about how flexy they are and it was selling me on
wanting Losco's more than I already did! I like the idea of as much
built-in suspension as I can get, provided the steering is still precise
enough.

All very interesting. I'm going to start with the Losco's first since
there's more real estate on that bar.
I have an Albatross bar on my Homer and love it! So, I put one on my Joe A

Never tried the Losco bars, but I liked the stiffness of the bullmoose
bosco bars, and not the flex of the regular bosco bars, especially when
pedaling standing up out the saddle, and both versions made for a very
cramped cockpit. But then I'm most comfortable on my Hunqapillar with a

Two saddles, both in as-new condition.
- The original C17 (with metal seat loops) in slate color.
- The newer C-17 carved (all weather edition in black).
Each one is $75 shipped CONUS, or name a fair price and let's go from there.

I got Grant a more manly version. And I’m having cards made with my bikes on
them, and under each photo is a cycling quote. I quoted him! So, when those
come, I’ll send his PlatyPin along with it. It’s made in France from pewter!
I’m glad he doesn’t read the List - don’t any of you squeal.

Roberta,
One person's "too flexy" is another person's "absorbs some road vibration",
I wouldn't worry too much. I didn't notice any difference in stiffness feel
between it and the Boscos I ride.

I notice the flex from normal riding. I do not ride “loaded” other than my fat
ass. I’m not sure how a loaded bike would impart more force to the handle bar,
if loads are not placed on the bar.

Use your eyes to judge a proper diameter. Cut it down to a suitable length
and drill a hole for screw/fastener if necessary.

Rivendell used to do presales, not so much with bicycles any more. I would
imagine there may have been some issues for the company to do
presales--maybe too many people backing out? Who knows, but a lot of small
batch companies are doing it this way, from bag makers to niche
manufacturers like
James, your experience with the Losco was similar to my experience with the
Billie bars. I found the Billie's and an 11CM stem on my Atlantis to be too
flexy when carrying a load. I ended up going back to albatross bars on a
slightly shorter stem. A little flex was fine, but it was just too much
Funny you should mention that as, until last week, Talisker were the only

As a once frequent traveler through the panhandle on highways 385/87,
leaving I-40 at Vega on a hypotenuse of it and I-25 en route to Mineral

always amazing, but so were the delays of travel.

That's fantastic. Your pictures are great, they really convey the ride and
the day. You may have lost sight of your tan sidewalls but have probably
never been clearer on why you have fenders on your bike!
