[RBW] Bosco/Albatross Aluminum Vs Chromoly

2015-06-28 Thread drew
I've had chromo and aluminum albatross bars. The only time I felt any real flex 
was under strenuous conditions with a somewhat heavy front load. I felt it on 
both bars, and likely could not distinguish the two. I agree with the previous 
assessment that the flex is due to the shape and hand position vs that of a 
mustache.

[RBW] Bosco/Albatross Aluminum Vs Chromoly

2015-06-27 Thread 'john elliott' via RBW Owners Bunch
I’m curious if the aluminum version of the bosco is slightly stiffer 
feeling than the cromoly bosco or if anyone has experience comparing the 
aluminum alba to the chromoly albatross bars in terms or stiffness or other 
factors.

I have the chromoly albatross bars and before that I had the aluminum 
moustache bars.  When I switched from moustache to alba I went from 
aluminum to chromoly and I do feel like the chromoly are a bit flexier.   
(but I know it’s tubing is slightly bigger sized too) and that may make the 
difference as opposed to the material change.


I’m not at all worried about strength differences between these bars, but I 
liked the feel of the stiffness of the moustache….. 



Anyone have any thoughts on this?
