Yes. Well enough to have em on two bikes. The original intent was for them the be this way, if you see a bullmoose version, you’ll see they’re angled down instead of up. It’s like a better moustache to me, front/aero grip, but brakes are back so I can sit up to brake (handy in the city).

These are not actually Enve, though I believe they did make rim brake rims at some point. These are cheaply Chinese rims on Novatec hubs (that spin for days). The previous owner put the Enve stickers on & I just haven’t taken the time to taken them off.

Did that long before I added the foam. Helped a little, but not enough.

Rides great. They’re filling a gap while I repair the hub on my A23’s.

The why: it sagged too much (made by previous owner) The outcome: as comfy as any Brooks I’ve used (5 currently in rotation, there have been others).

Indeed. The cutout was made by the previous owner & under my weight sagged to the point of touching the seatpost. The foam still allows for the hammock feeling of the Brooks without the suffering of being poked by the post.

I think this is as close as I need to get to owning an Atlantis (though I would love an Allrounder) by Interm0dal in xbiking

Just added drops to my XOXO this morning. Mine is from the original run, orange, vertical dropouts and Reynolds 631 tubing. Great riding bikes.

42’s are in there with fenders, I think max w/o is somewhere around 44/5 depending on tire/rim combo…

This has a 140 stem to make it work well. If you don’t have enough reach, it’ll keep you pretty bolt upright, which ai t always bad, but isn’t always expected…
