Re: [RBW] New Wavie Bar Photos

I don't ride drops so I've become the queen of Alt Bars it seems. I've tried all that you mentioned and just recently put the Jones H-bar on my Cheviot. This Jones bar is the "simple one" that doesn't have the extended loop on it - so it looks like the MAP bars that I happen to have on my QB.

Re: [RBW] New Wavie Bar Photos

Jeremy: That's my issue, too. I love the look and hand position of North Road-type bars, but I always end up chopping the ends even on bikes with fairly long toptubes. I recently put a V-O Milan bar (similar shape) on my Pashley and the semi-swept position with Ergon grips works great. I have a

That longer center section on either side of the stem is a really nice touch, adding another useful hand position. Here's a pic of the (L to R): - *Albastache *(26 stem clamp, 23.8 brake clamp, 555 wide, 25 drop/rise) - *Ahearne+Map* (25.4 clamp, 22.2 brake clamp, 610 wide, 25 drop/r

Re: [RBW] New Wavie Bar Photos

I'm very pleased with my MAP bars on my Kogswell - they're really a great balance between full-forward drop/flat bar and full-upright Albatross/Choco/whatever. I'll definitely give this one a try once available. It has a good look. I find that a fully-upright position works poorly for me - I ge

Re: [RBW] New Wavie Bar Photos

The bar gets my vote, totally sold on my Map bars. fwiw, I liked the Riv's own Mary bar simile - I think they needed one after all the U-shaped bars they've offered for so long. If you want to sit bolt upright, a U-shaped bar is probably what you want, but if you want a bit more aggressive ri

Re: [RBW] New Wavie Bar Photos

The On One Mary was a very early “alt” bar similar to this. A bit narrower at 645mm, and it has some rise. Eric On Wednesday, April 18, 2018, Joe Bernard wrote: > I don't get the "Rivendell Mary" reference. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "RB

Re: [RBW] New Wavie Bar Photos

It’s like a Rivendell Mary bar. Small snarkiness aside, I’m glad they’re doing a wider bar. Eric On Wednesday, April 18, 2018, Bob Ehrenbeck wrote: > > After hearing about the upcoming Wavie handlebars from Bill Lindsay in this > post >

After hearing about the upcoming Wavie handlebars from Bill Lindsay in this post , I took his suggestion to ask Riv if they would send some photos ahead of the catalog arrival. Vince came through, and also mentioned that the
