Thanks. Some interesting bikes.
I've hated wide bars since I got my first mountain bike in 1989 and swapped
out the nice Nittos for what was known back then as a French "tourist" bar.
I've tried wide bars, straight, curved, and drop, and always go back to
narrow. 54 cm is comfortable, tho' I'd not
Sorry, one more; my original "good" bike. A late 70's Schwinn Heavy Duty
that I bought new in 81'
Bought the complete bike and changed literally every part on it, but the
frame! LOL
(I tend to do that)
I put 10,000 miles on this (conservatively) over the next 2-3 years.
I still have it, but it's
That looks great! The trimming of the bars sounds perplexing though? The
original width sounded perfect. But, I guess if you are going from drop
bars or even some other Riv. bar 76cm would feel wide; it's a short
adjustment period really.
Something like this would be awesome!!

Aha! Never did like that particular song, so never listened to it much.

A man publicly defending his Monocog after some woman insulted it. A woman,
extolling the virtues of her Platypus after some man said it wasn’t as good as
a Monocog. It has come to this.
It all sounds so...inappropriate.
🤣
This is either really funny OR I’m getting in trouble by the admin...
Ok
Homely! How dare you! *How dare you!*
Anyway, my tires are fatter than your tires.

Just rode it for an hour on dirt except for a mile or so of pavement. Bar
too low; need an upriser stem of about same length to get bar higher and a
bit closer. Higher and closer, the 54 cm will be pretty just-right, tho' my
left palm has always started tingling after 2 to 10 miles, depending on th
Thanks. No, no sharpie; perhaps a previous owner did? I haven't seen a name.
This just in! Bar was originally 76 cm, I trimmed it 4 or 5 times, now it's
54 cm and almost narrow enough. But because of the bulge to 31.8, the
levers can't move inward any further, and I like the grips.
Narrow is Nice
Nice! That would be a great winter bike here in the snow lands! Did you
sharpie out the name on the down tube?
