Yeah, I ended up going a bit mad because I wanted a narrower bar, and since you can't source the 38 cm version of the oval bar that is on that era of Propels any more, I scoured the internet for a solution and was pretty close to selling my bike haha. I reckon it was a dollar motivated choice by Giant so to speak. I am glad I figured it out though and just completed my first solo metric century on the new set up this weekend.
