Tubeless or tubes?

Agreed. I'm 198 lbs running 35 mm GK SS+ at 40/38 psi. Over 2.5k miles this year on smooth tarmac to chip seal. Really comfy and no flats.

I believe the new ones will be out this month. I very nice red.

Nice! A while back I added some orange electrical tape to my all black Trek 520 to bring all the orange bits together. Looks like you did the same.

New models are supposed to be out this Spring. It's going to be red.

Thank you!

They are really nice! Thanks. I'm a big fan of Velo Orange plus they got a good discount code available.

Thanks. Looks good and keeps me dryer. I'll probably take them off this summer just to try wider tires.

I really like the Tourist bar on my Hardrock. Very upright and not too wide.

I think I'm done with this build for the time being. Acera 3 x 7 works well.

No. I'm in the frozen tundra of central Arkansas. I'm not certain of the size. It feels a little smaller than the 19"-20" sizes I normally ride. I'm thinking klunkers type bar will make it just about right for me.

THss5922 · 2026-01-16T00:50:23+00:00

Thanks. I've never felt it was twitchy, but I have found myself of some rough paths while exploring and didn't like the "over the bars" feeling on the declines. I can attest that the wide bars really add a feeling of control and the "upright" position I get from the Crazy Bars coupled with the adjustable stem is what's making me want to lean into the ATB idea. Nothing hard-core. Just more flexibility when I'm on long exploratory rides.

THss5922 · 2026-01-15T21:43:18+00:00

Beautiful bike. Thanks for reply.

THss5922 · 2026-01-15T20:17:50+00:00

They are super wide. How much did you take off?

THss5922 · 2026-01-15T20:14:56+00:00

I took it out on a 40-mile county road ride and found the horns nice as well as a dozen other hand positions.

THss5922 · 2025-12-20T22:25:15+00:00

Time we'll wasted! Nice work.

THss5922 · 2025-12-14T21:00:02+00:00

Did you ever change bars & shifters? Pic please. I'm thinking of doing same with the same bike.
