One more reason for changing the name of the new bar: there's already
something out there called Back-Up Barz. And I'd really hate to get
the two confused.

Yes, that would suck all the air right out of that tire!

I agree, any new bar is a welcomed bar in my opinion. If this bar is like a
mustache bar but with an extra hand position or two that takes mountain
levers I am sold.

Ugh... that second link is scary. I have a mental picture of being in the
drops, stopping fast, getting pitched forward, and getting stuck, neck
firmly trapped between the bars. :-)

On a couple of occasions, I've gone into Riv HQ with my camera. Usually
when I've been picking up a frame, so I could photograph the process. I'd
take pictures of whatever caught my eye, and I think I ended up capturing
and making public stuff that they had preferred had kept secret. Either
I'm really curious to see this bar. I anticipated that it would be
some kind of multi position bar that takes mtn bike brake levers.
Maybe I missed it the blug post but I'm curious if they're off-
roadable. I recently swapped out the Albatross bars on my Cross Check
commuter for a Surly Open Bar
I think I remember something like that happening with the BarSack.
You and somebody else used to post pics of the big, packing/cutting
table workbench they have. Then guys like me would notice everything
but what was in the center of the pic. It has to be kind of hard

I love the idea of alternative bars and having variety...however...
I must have missed the *reasoning* for keeping them hush hush while offering
hints, but making mention of not mentioning them at the risk of financial
penalty to the customers they're being marketed to. If they are as odd but
Cute. I keep thinking of a reason to set up a mixte for myself. This might
be the final straw. I can't wait to see them.

New HS Bar Teaser
Ok, here's my guess (disclaimer: I have not been to Walnut Creek..have not
seen the bars): It's an Albatross with a road-bar-ish flat section, and a
Moustache Bar-ish forward curve. The wider flat section before the curve
starts provides the wider stem-to-end dimension; the deeper curve
My guess is it's Rivs take on the FuBar (http://www.misfitpsycles.com/
handlebars.html) which, to my mind, is awesomeness. In silver, 25.4
clamp... On my MB-2, this is gonna be so sweet.

Dustin's seen the bars, but knows if he divulges anything, he's in for
it, and it is not pleasant. TapeBubba.MAY have seen them. May
NOT have noticed them. We still have that thing going, where, if
somebody posts a clear photo, then we raise the price on everybody's
handlebars by $20, and
I'm TapeBubba and I didn't note the new bars last time I was in. My cute

It's a bicycle - everything in pairs, right?
The blurring of the bars got me - I kept waiting for something else to
load!

I don't see how your comment could qualify as a spoiler. I actually attempted
a guess based on G's description. All you said was you'd like one on a mixte.

As I looked at the Blug post today my thoughts turned to -
number seven, Rivendell naughty bits. (said in a mild British
accent, of course)
Am hoping the bars are nice. Might buy a pair for my convertible
single speed.

it sounds a bit like the Lauterwasser bar,

but flipped right side up, and a little more in the middle

Yeah, the lobster bib or the splats, but I think it was an employ-ado who

My wife has Albatross bars on her X-0, and I like 'em, but I've also
wished for more grab-able areas, that I could wrap with tape and use
to vary my hand positions. Reading through Grant's description, it
sounds like the new bars are going to offer that, Cool.
