Which bars ? .. anything goes... and you don't have to limit
yourself to one set-up only as you have multiple bars. Don't let your
imagination stop you! I'm likely to run fat knobbies as well, but use
an Albatross bar simply because for me, the wrist position is perfect,
like a natural
Paul - I've got another thread going about MY green 64 Bomb. It hasn't
arrived yet, but I'll bet mine is greener!

I'd be very interested to see photos of a Bombadil sized for a

Cool! Thanks for posting the picture. I'm looking forward to seeing more
pics when you have it all built-up. I've heard mention of the 64cm but if

I'll keep updating the build on Flickr. Tonight I'll put the wheels, bars
and saddle on. I'll have it together by Saturday.
Still on the fence on what bars to add. I've got Albatross, Moustache and
Noodles. Part of me wants to run it as a full on 29er and put on a Surly
Torsion bar, which is
