Speaking of such matters, I was at RBW today and rode a Wolbis with a prototype
Bosco Bullmoose that reaches back a bit less and flared a little more. It's
perfect, I want one.

Surprised to hear about this. Never had a single out of spec Nitto item nor
have I ever seen one in person and there have been plenty coming through my
hands. Only ones I am even aware of are some bars that were stamped with the
wrong width.

They ought to have, but this isn't the first I've heard of or experienced
myself that the diameters can be off just enough to be an issue. But I should
reiterate that those Boscos have a LOT of leverage in the design.

That is a great deal. At 180mm this saddle is 5mm wider than the B17. Their
widest model, in fact. Someone will be very happy with it.

I switched to bosco moose on my Riv-built Clem for this reason. I'm a big
guy, and a couple of times at very sudden stops, I moved the bars in the
stem significantly. The integrated stem removes any worry.

The problem is Nitto tolerances for diameter of clamp and bar can vary just
enough to have one not match well with the other. Ask the guy with a slightly
oversized Bosco that I recently discovered is pure madness to slide levers and
grips on.

Well, I stand corrected. I've never had a properly set up bar bar slip
except for cheap steel bars in cheap steel stems, and even that problem was
fixed with a box wrench (ie, it wasn't properly set up).
I guess that yes, the Bullmoose makes sense now.

Can't find this model. If it is an Aravis or Aspin though without the cutout
I will take it though.

The technomic with its steel backing plat will handle a good amount of over
torquing. Same with the sleeved boscos. Grease stem bolt and underneath bolt
head and apply friction paste.

It seems we are living in the hey day of gravel events. Lots of good people
laying out good routes with some good scenery.
I was drawn to these gravel rides a few years ago because they seemed more

slow wanna-be racer to
Selling because I prefer the shape of my brooks. The saddle was literally
ridden for 20 minutes and went back in the box. It’s like new and comes with
all the original packaging and comes with leather lotion. I will upload

Sold!

When I ride the bike, boscos and Albas and bullhorns and anything else with
that kind of lever will slip in a 25.4 or 26 stem if tightened per torque
recommended and interfaced properly. Overtorquing and friction paste are ways
to minimize this and even that is no guarantee.
Clayton Scott
Forgot to add that a properly made and properly sized, 1-bolt, 25.4 mm or
26.0 mm bar and stem combo won't slip either, in my experience, which is
pretty extensive. That is to say, in normal use *they will not slip.*
*One of the main reasons 31.8 makes more sense. Slips substantially less.*
*I
If the stem and clamp area of the bar match as they should, the bar ought
not to slip, at least with forces normal to normal riding. Does your stem
have a clamp that is sized to the bar? If not, you can shim it; Riv used to
sell a shim for this purpose, and you can also cut one from an aluminum
As usual I forgot to add something:
Size Large.
22" pit to pit.
26 1/2" bottom of neck seam to bottom of hem.

I prefer 2 and 4 bolt open face stems myself, or at least a steel single
bolt one. I've never had any of those slip.

This is applicable. Seems like sufficient torque(with torque wrench of some
sort) and/or blue loctite on the bolt threads. Carbon fiber friction paste
also. Do measure
Is anyone else experiencing slipping Bosco bars? No matter how much I tighten
the stem, it slips when I apply even a reasonable amount of pressure on the
bars. There’s no grease in there to screw things up either. So frustrating
because I like the bars, but it’s just not safe to ride this
Good one, Mark!
