Dropped Fat Chance TC

Re:

If i may suggest: drop the brake levers down on the h bars. Significantly. It will feel much better on technical singletrack. You will gain control and ride w/ hands on drops not on the brake hoods.

Terrific stuff. Those Campy parts are just so gorgeous...

I have never ridden this set up either but those who have seem to love it. I had all the rare parts, Salsa roller P10, BB2 flared bars and other parts, except the WTB thumbshifter adapters :facepalm:, which i could not find for love or money. So the project died but this isnt helping

Its a military green shade, similar to the 94 Stumpjumper. Looks amazing and very on trend right now it seems.

I did that before and I find this set up more suitable for my preferences. Thanks for that hint though

I've always wanted to try a drop bar. I was sceptical, I almost gave up - but I've decided to finish that project. I'm glad I did it. Once you've tried it you're gonna stay with it. Besides that I have a second one with standard bars.

Beautiful frame and parts. Not so sure about the drop bars though... :?

Enjoy it!

I took it off road today for the first time. Man almighty how it rides. I must say drop bar opens new perspectives. It's fast. It's nimble and swift. Yet still comfy.
I shoud have try it ten years ago.
