I was out riding the Appaloosa today and thought I’d do a small experiment.
I switched the Choco-moose bars to Bullmoose bars at the trailhead today, which was made easy by having slip on grips. With the exception of making the brake housing too long (but still working) the installation was a breeze. I fix those cables tomorrow. Anyway, I rode a little with the choco bars, switched and rode a lot with the bullmoose which really gave me a good comparison between the two bars and how the bike handled with each. The verdict? The bullmoose wins for the type of riding I do. They allowed me to feel more connected with the bike when riding on the trail and gave me the perfect reach. The choco bars, while comfy and have an extra hand position, put my hands into a position that less confidence inspiring and I think the main position comes back too far for me. Bottom line, it’s important to try out different bar setups because you never know what will feel right. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
