[RBW] Re: Roadini!

2017-08-06 Thread Daniel D.
If the roadini was ~$1300, I probably would've chosen something else. Even at $875 I was almost tempted away by the BMC road or monstercross. At $1300 I would've been considering gunnar, lynskey, Otso warakin etc. Forgot to mention another reason I bought the roadini, that great headbadge!

One other option. Not mentioned is to just shorten your stem rather than raising it. Stems can be found cheap on this list for experimentation. Decreasing reach can alleviate neck soreness. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
