Re: Re:
The forks are almost ridged at the moment, so no way to know untill I ride it suspended.
The reach is a big consideration, and was for me, braking on the hoods is spot on, its getting use to the gear lever position for me. I'm hoping with both units brought up the bar my gear changing will improve, cus it aint great at the moment...Lol.

I think the main problem with DB conversions is nailing the reach to be in the hooks on a descent and being able to grab a fistfull of lever as easy with a flat bar.
Old drop bar levers and flared bars unfortunatly do not lend themselves well to riding on the hoods - more of an issue if you like bar ends on a flat bar.
