Pretty fenders!!
Rivendell has been the fender champion for a long time so I'm surprised they
don't make sone of the bikes so the bridge is equidistant from the drop off.

Ryan it's good you see Riv while watching Thurs NFL, cause what I see from

#1 vs #2, man I hate the "color rush" era.

I'm intrigued by dirt drops, but Do you lose some of the comfort of the hoods

Hello folks-
Just saw that Sierra Trading Post has gotten in A BUNCH of merino wool
t-shirts from Ibex. I just ordered a few! The supplies are pretty limited,
so doubt they'd last more than a few days. And most of them are about $40,
though the 87% wool/13% nylon shirt is just $25!

I'm in the not a big fan of the Noodle bar club as well. I have a pair

few years. They rise up from the stem, which is opposite

I found the Noodles quite comfortable, once I ditched the wide ones and
went back to 42s. I found I had to use a stem 1 cm longer, as they curve
back a bit from the flats. The drop is deeper than I personally like, but
the ramps are adequately long to be useful. At any rate, my wrists felt
fine.

The Noodle has worked best for me on all the drops I've tried. I have them
on 3 different bikes.

Very cool, Grant. I figured (correctly) it was something you cooked up to

Thanks for the info. I have them on my Rambouillet. They are shorter ramps for

Description of both being "roadish" does seem slightly suspect. It's
interesting that they intentionally cropped off the handlebars in the
photos of #5. A quick comparison tells me it might be similar to a 58cm
