My bad, Patrick. Both are 8cm length extensions. They say Pearl 8 on the

Wow. Kudos. Nice save.
I guess I’ll lie about my weight if I buy a Roadeo. I’m probably over on the

Bob, thanks for the feedback. I’ll know more about the Albastache bars soon
hopefully. I have Salsa Cowchipper bars that you can try if interested. But,
they are 31.8 at the stem so a more modern size.

Forward facing dropouts as Patrick M suggests are much, much easier to use
than rear facing. This is doubly true if you keep a derailer hanger on
there in case you want to have gears at some point. This is definitely
something the builder should get your input on.

My 2 cents...
Request a repaint of the affected area from Mark after the drop outs are
replaced. That way it is ready to ride the day it comes back. A tastefully
contrasting paint means the rest of the frame and fork can be left alone
and costs significantly less.

Hi Doug,
I liked my friend's drop bar setup vs. my Albastache for a few reasons, but
mostly because I like the flats on drops more than I like the swept-back feel
of Albastache, Moustache and Albatross, all of which I've had on my Sam, and I
ride the hoods pretty often on my Albastache setup
Are you looking for more hand positions with the drops? I just did the
opposite conversion to a Trek 520. What are your thoughts on riding with
the Albastache cockpit? I've only put a few miles on mine since the switch.

Yes, correct.
It has a seat stay cross bar thing with fender mounts. there is no need for
an actual brake bridge, because either canti's or v's dont need that.
Atlanti used to have a curved brake cable stop that went across the
stays (which i think is what eric was referring to) and a bridge

Update: working with Grant, who connected me to Mark Nobilette (who is
