Thanks! Moving the thing shifters down by the curves is still really convenient shifting and it means I can use all three hand positions (grips, top of the bend and flats). I really dig it. Got the inspiration from a blug post or something. -- You received this message because you are

[image: sam.JPG] I have them on my Sam and Hunq. I tried some bolt on leather grips but have since switched to Riv cork on both. VO leather wrap on the rest of the bar (The "city bike" grip is long enough). I've also used Dia Compe "stoker" knobs as a midpoint grip and interrupter levers

I love my Ergons. They made the bar usable. I tried them before with cork grips and standard ESI grips and it just didn't gel. On Thursday, February 21, 2019 at 5:29:07 PM UTC-8, masmojo wrote: > > Me & the Boscos never bonded, but what I dig on my Albatross and other > similar bars is BMX

Me & the Boscos never bonded, but what I dig on my Albatross and other similar bars is BMX grips! Yeah . . . BMX grips some of my favorites: Deco, Volume, Subrosa and Eastern. If I could figure out how to post pics I would. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google
