Sized for both, the curved parts are road size, straight part is 7/8"
The idea of mustache bars is always in the back of my head. I want them to work.
make the center section wider, then give them very aggressive downsweep. slap some road levers on them on the bendy parts and they work a treat
I feel like long ago you and I sent the same pair of nitto moustaches back and forth multiple times trying to make them work
Iâm pretty sure you have to be a bearded boomer for them to work.
I think so. Were they black?
I dunno itâs fine I guess
I tried two types of moustache bars back in the dayâthe ones that came stock on the orange Bridgestone XO-1 and the flat-bar-compatible ones that GP specâd on the XO-2 (donât recall the model years). Hated âem both. Would have much preferred drops, which is somewhat ironic, because I all but stopped using drop bars when I discovered Jonesâ H-Bars.
About once a week I start dithering on replacing the drop bars on my LHT with Jones bars but I already have 2 bikes with Jones bars so that might be enough
I love them levers
Is that a long boi version?
i would really like my speed dial levers to be that long on my fake jones setup
is there a detailed tutorial somewhere or should just find long levers i like?
This is what Tim said in the post:
turned them into fullhand levers with some cheap saccon levers. drilled new holes to get less pull with the sacconâs. put in longer M4 screws into the avid body.
Heâs a great insta-follow making bags, racks and all kinds of hackery seemingly without any welding?
making his steerer mount front rack with something that goes down to the front crown hole is a goal of mine. or something that goes down from the bars and braces on the steerer.
wouldnât be super strong but would be neat/fun
Looks like cheapish OEM stuff
Bars, Bum Bars.
Thatâs a 53 and he rides a 56
In his defense, itâs probably not his bike, and he gets DNGAF points for going barefoot.
