It's probably because I came off jones bar to the chocomoose, but the chocomoose seemed too narrow to me. This jones bar is the extrawide version, and I've thought about cutting it down. So far the extra inches haven't been a bother, but really I don't use the ends of the bar hardly ever.
The bell is a spur cycle bell, and the grips are spur cycle grip rings. (google either of those to find) The bell really is on the verge, if not past, of being too annoying. I don't ring it much, but it's pretty. On Mon, May 9, 2016 at 2:13 AM, William R. <[email protected]> wrote: > Very nice Patrick. I like the way your Joe is evolving.
