Subject: [RBW] In Praise of Jitensha Bars
I love my Quickbeam. I've been riding it as a daily commuter in San
Francisco since I bought it last fall, with some weekend trips across
the bridge and into Marin. The Beam came set-up with noodle bars,
which I really like. For most of my riding, though, which involves
tearing around the city and hauling groceries, I found myself wanting
to try out a more upright position.
Enter the Jitensha bars...
I loved the Quickbeam before, yeah, but the new bars have taken it to
another level altogether. Upright, but still fast feeling with
incredible control, even with a loaded front basket. There far enough
out that I can still get decent leverage when climbing out of the
saddle. Anyway, if you're considering going a little swept back and
upright, but don't want to go as far as the albatross bars, I highly
recommend giving the Jitensha's a shot. Here're a couple of shots:
