My opposite problem was my Billies had me a smidge more leaning in than my arthritic wrists would tolerate so I switched back to Boscos. I'll bet you would like the Billie Bar. On Friday, April 21, 2023 at 1:19:00 PM UTC-7 philipr...@gmail.com wrote: > You know, my old Dutch riding buddy Hans

Billie bar? Wavie? Surly Terminal? VO Granola bar? All possible contenders.I personally love the Tosco bar, but also have a Magic Moth bar (which is basically the same as a Ron’s Ortho bar). These all seem like good recommendations to me.On Apr 21, 2023, at 4:49 PM, Justin Kennedy wrote:I

I routinely switch back and forth b/t an upright bar with a long stem (Uncle Ron's Ortho Bars lately) and Wavies with a stubbie stem, and really dig both set ups. Very different feels but both super comfy. On Friday, April 21, 2023 at 4:22:40 PM UTC-4 Lucky wrote: > Have you considered the

Have you considered the Losco? I borrowed one and found it a nice low compromise to the Tosco and both way flatter than the Bosco.On Apr 21, 2023, at 13:19, Philip Barrett wrote:You know, my old Dutch riding buddy Hans Der Barrs! He was fast in his day...Actually I'm currently using a set of
