[RBW] Re: Sizing Down? Pocket ‘Pus.

I ordered a 55 Platy in the last presale, was thinking of taking amtrak to pick it up in person and bring it with me back, Oakland to LA. Can someone confirm whether or not the bike will be accepted on the train without boxing it up? Please and thank you. Good luck with your Platycisions Leah!

That's an awesome find. The hinged ones Riv sells are "easier" to install for folks who already have their grips installed and can't/don't want to remove them, but for a fresh flat bar build, those Microshifts are awesome. The other thing about the Riv ones is that they will fit 26.0mm
