[RBW] Re: WTT: Jones 2.5 SG + stem combo for Bosco + Tallux

2017-12-11 Thread Coal Bee Rye Anne
Hi Ash,

Sent a PM the other day but I'm still figuring out this whole google group 
thing and not completely sure whether it even went through.  Was sent on 
mobile but while in "desktop" mode.

In case you didn't get it:

I've been curious to try a Jones bar and I have a 55cm Cromo Bosco I'd 
happily trade. I already traded away the 12cm Tallux that also came with my 
Clem, however.  In lieu of the Tallux I have a different NOS Nitto stem I 
briefly used with the Bosco before eventually swapping them all out for a 
Chocomoose.  It's a 13cm cromo tig'd riser stem similar to the HiRiser 
currently sold by Riv but with a shorter quill (and maybe slightly 
different angle.)  I had initially swapped the Tallux out to use it on a 
different frame since I didn't really need the long quill length on the 
Clem in combination with the rise of the Bosco and the 13cm tig'd stem 
still got the bars to about the same spot as the Tallux with it's 
rise/reach.

Should I decide to revert back to Bosco I'll want to go with the wider 
58 bullmoose version instead so this one is yours, if still interested in a 
trade.  If not interested (whether due to the stem being a dealbreaker or 
because you already worked something else out) that's cool too but please 
let me know...  I may still have another use for the Bosco but before 
installing anything I wanted to be sure whether or not you were still 
looking for a trade.

Pics available upon request.  The Bosco is still installed on the Nitto 
riser stem with bartape and hoods of old road levers in the forward 
position.

Thanks,

Brian Cole

I recommend the 13cm stem. Boscos reach WAY back.

Thanks for the recommendation Joe.  I was wondering about this.  Sometime 
ago I went to Riv website to order a Tallux, but stopped since I wasn't 
sure which one I needed.

Brian and I are trading the handlebars!
