@igor please make those Lucky bars have 16 (2*8) or 18 degrees of sweep!

8* Not enough for ya?

ninja edit: They literally came in yesterday at the end of the day, so I haven’t even put them on yet to give initial impressions

8 or 9 for an enduro-focused bar where you’re standing a lot.

+/- 16 for more seated use feels more natural on an 800 bar. As bars get wider your wrists turn out, but everyone is still selling the same bend they used when bars were 640mm

you’re talking about the angle of the dangle from a relatively fixed point to the hand position.

Also I’m trying to imagine the vehicle gaps I will fit through with an 800mm bar.

pop wheelie
turn bars 45degrees
problem solved!

Serious question, why no memorable hardtail?

FTFM and I’d probably buy this

I know it’s gonna break at some point, but I love these caad5 hardtails

The Volvo Team blue F2000s of the same period are memorable for me.

But 4 bolt rotors and coda hydro brakes :woman_facepalming:

i wonder what happened to tzu sing’s cannondale track reproduction? are there any prototypes floating around?

for what it’s worth y’all they’re doing the bsa thing already on a lot of stuff

edit: and while it works for this use case better than a lot of alternatives, it’s still a really odd way to install bearings

I know a gravel bike with 650b wheels and a lefty fork and shock I bet that would be really popular.
