    Flared bars in the Pro races

    Also noticed that the longer disc levers/hoods seem to be used for a more aero(ish) position.

    Flared bars in the Pro races

    Apologies if this has been around for ages. I was watching the Paris-Nice ,and in the run up to the finish, it looked like there were a few sets of wider/flared bars. Is this because some of the sprinters/ lead outs are now using them. Thanks :)

    In the words of Rick Astley "Never Gonna Give You Up"

    Could he have been singing about 9 speed XTR and Dura Ace kit? ;) 🙃 🤣 I never cease to be amazed at how long some of my 9 speed rear mechs, STIs and changers have lasted. So, what are your objects that refuse to die, and 'You're Never Gonna Give Them Up' :)

    26" to 700c/650b conversion, pros and cons?

    I am firmly in the 'adapt or die' camp :) It's always good to give some builds a longer test than twice around the car park ;-)

    Reduced Suntour XC Pro Pedals

    These came on my (91) Kona Explosif . Not had a hard life as I switched soon after to SPDs for racing. They then went in the parts bin and only came out to go on some of the kid's bikes. With the Mt Christophe clips and straps,the only thing missing are the small rubber bungs that were in the...

    Best of the pre V Brake Cantis... a thread that may of been done to to death

    As above. I know it might 'brake' retro rules,but while building an unstealable bike for one of the kids, I fitted the cantis with some Vbrake pads and some Avid speed dial 7 levers. They worked very well.
