[RBW] Towards a new category: high performance upright

2015-01-29 Thread Surlyprof
Would the mustache and albastache bars be considered an upright or drop bar?  
Do they fit this category?

[RBW] Towards a new category: high performance upright

2015-01-28 Thread Jeremy Till
Some musings and hopefully the first of a few posts on the subject:

http://handlebarchronicles.blogspot.com/2015/01/high-performance-upright-towards-new.html

Further thought for this list: my thinking about this category is directly 
informed, if not wholly made possible, by Grant and Rivendell's work.  I 
want to take what they've done and talk about it more broadly as a 
category, as I believe there are many of us love this type of bike, 
Rivendell devotees or no.  I hope to devote a future post to the 
intellectual antecedents of my category, including Grant but also Mike 
Flanigan/ANT, old Raleighs, early MTB's, etc. 

Your thoughts and comments much appreciated.
