I can ride the 48cm Noodles just fine. But I can't fathom riding a
drop bar that is a lot less wide. I don't know if it's accurate, but
my general impression is that 48cm drops are seen as huge. That is
just odd to me. I mean, I know I'm big and all (6', 245-and-falling),
but I'm not the biggest cy
Sounds like you'll need two wheelsets!
I swapped tires a few times the first winter I rode (studded/non-studded). I
couldn't bring myself to ride with studs on several perfectly snow&ice-free
days in a row. (That was before I had the 2nd bike.) I got a 2nd wheelset
before too long. Swapping whe
Thanks, Thomas!
OK, so I'm diving in on a leap of faith... (which is how the faithful
always dive, right?)
Before I have even received my first pair of handlebars (they're on
order), I've already purchased (from DaVinci) the full monty... the

In that terribly written post I envisioned 16 bikes. 4 hunqa, 4
hillborne, 4 bomba, 4 atlantis. One of each had a bullmoose, one of
each had an albatross, and noodle (or any drop bar) and moustache. Of
those 16 bikes, I said that I thought the hillborne/bullmoose made the
least sense, but even t
Oh, and I'm curious... was it that you felt the Hillborne/Bullmoose
intrinsically didn't make much sense? If so, what's the rationale? It is the
combo I'm likely to ride the least. But my rationale I think to be rare: even
now, with all these options, I normally choose to ride bolt upright (note
Indeed it is intentional... on the Bullmoose, I'm reaching downward to the
extent that the "rolled WAAY forward" position is approximately in line with
how my arms approach the bar. As my arms are relatively stretched out (I'm also
leaning forward a bit), it would be less comfortable to extend m
Confirming that the complete-bike photos are in fact there, and are
plenty good quality to tell the story. You built column 1 of my
exceedingly poorly written 4x4 array of bikes post! In that post I
speculated that a Hillborne with Bullmooses would not make much sense,
but in your pics, I have to
It only now occurs to me perhaps you didn't notice that the second
set of cockpit links (next to my comments on how each rides) actually
do take you to pictures of the bike with the appropriate cockpit. Not
high quality, mind you. But pictures nonetheless.
Just in case you weren't actually *pu
Heh heh if those high quality photos exist, they were taken by
someone who has a hillborne and four cockpits (like me!) and is a high
quality photographer (unlike me!).
Seriously, I intend to get some better shots with a real camera (my
phone's camera is more marketing tool and photography too
Great post, but where oh where are the high quality photos of your
complete bike with each cockpit? :)
You appear to be using the same stem with 3 of the bars? Do you set
them at the same height? That would be interesting, as I think I would
want a shorter extension for a moustache versus a noodle
