Looks very nice! Didn't realize that Nitto did dirt drop bars. When I built up my Bantam, I used the Origin 8 Gary bars because they were one of the few 25.4 options that would work with the Nitto dirt drop stem. -Shawn

Here’s another of those brake levers set up with Shimano Bar Cons on a recent build we did: https://www.instagram.com/p/BBf-AV5w1Cr/?taken-by=gravelandgrind On Monday, February 8, 2016 at 10:12:56 AM UTC-5, Gravel & Grind Espresso + Bikes wrote: > > Just finished this Hunqapillar demo build.

I’ve used those bars, and they’re great for the $$. The Nitto’s are a hard find. We struggle to keep them in stock. I like the shape a bit more (less drop) but they are similar, flare wise. Also good are the Soma Portola Bars. On Monday, February 8, 2016 at 12:36:45 PM UTC-5, Shawn Granton

Nice! I've got a white industries 44/26 up front with a shimano 11-36 in the back and it's been great. I can't run the larger chain ring and the largest cog (36t) without it running pretty rough, it's just too much cross chaining. But one cog down and it's buttery smooth. How is it on the Hunq?
