congrats...nice bike...will be interesting to see how a compact double
works.
nice moustache bars...i tried those and drops but the bars i just outfitted
recently which
just feel so good are the newer metropolis bars by fsa
http://www.cyclingnews.com/features/photos/sea-otter-fsa-expands-road-t
i already have a 53 riv atlantis which takes 26" wheels,
have my eye on a blue rambo in 52 that due to size also takes 26
rimshowever i was thinking it'd be nice to switch things around
and do it 650b stylewould this be doable in your opinions?

was doable or not.
