Re: [RBW] Is there a 31.8 clamp drop bar comparable to a Nitto Noodle 54cm?

2022-12-20 Thread David Hallerman
Scott, the Nitto M151 is a new favorite. Somewhat shallower with less reach
than Noodles, but still same basic effects for me.

I have the 31.8 version on my Gunnar Sport, and the 26.0 clamp size
(everything else the same) on my Rambouillet.

https://www.retro-gression.com/products/nitto-m151f-ssb-handlebar

That’s where I bought the bars. Interesting online presence.

2022-12-16 Thread Jason Fuller
Scott,

Oh, I missed that you have ALL the faceplaters!  Nice!  I thought you had
one stem you were looking to use, and the randonneur bars tend to need a
shorter stem than other drop bars.  The RH bar is 115mm reach, vs the
M137's 78mm reach - 37mm difference! What is nice about the long reach of
the randonneur bars is that you have tons of real estate fore-aft to rest
your hands, hence their value as a long distance bar, but good plan to
start with the shortest stem.

2022-12-16 Thread 'Scott Luly' via RBW Owners Bunch
 Jason,
Thanks for the Nitto M137 recommendation. I'll check it out. I've already 
ordered the Nitto made RH Randonneur. In the product description it wasn't 
noted as a long reach bar. Maybe you could check their site and let me know 
what you think of the bar description, please? It sounds like a good bar to 
have in the quiver.

And exactly what do you mean it likely won't work with my stem, too much reach? 
I have Nitto FacePlaters in 60, 85, 110, and 135 and was thinking about 
starting with 60 as a starting point.
Cheers,
Scott

I have to retract my overly confident assertion: "best" for bars and
saddles can only mean "best for me." But here is what I like about the Maes
Parallel, after using scores of other road and "dirt" drop  bars.

The long flat ramps. I like my bars set up with ramps and ends of hooks
parallel to the ground, and the MP seems perfectly designed for this,
allowing you to mount your levers high enough without eliminating the flat
ramp ahead of the hoods.

Positions: Instead of 4 positions: hooks, hoods, ramps behind hoods, flats,
I get 5: hooks, hoods, ramps behind hoods, ramps a bit further back, flats.

The flat hooks. My left palm hurts when I rest it for more than 10 minutes
on a slanted hook. The other day I was in the hooks of the MP bar for a
good 5 miles non-stop, total 7 miles with a bit of a break; again, very
sensitive left palm. True, I did shift the left palm around every half mile
or mile, but I was in the drop position as described. Can't do that with
drop bar slanted downward.

The moderate drop. I like an aero hoods position, but enough difference
when moving from hoods to hooks so that there is material advantage against
a headwind; but I dislike deep drops which at almost 68 I find too low --
reason I swapped out the 140 mm drop Nitto 165 and Giro d'Italia bars for
the MPs (both have 90 mm ramps and 140 mm drop, IIRC). The MPs are
wonderful for this: again, long reach, modest drop.

Finally, the quality: the best of Nitto standards among all the levels of
high Nitto quality standards.

Oh, and even more finally: they have a prettier polish than say the Noodle

2022-12-11 Thread Steven Sweedler
Scott, I wanted a bar at least  as wide as my 48 Noodles, right now
planning on trying the 52 Noodles with a 26.0 clamp. The Maes are 46 at the
widest. Steve

2022-12-10 Thread Patrick Moore
Nitto makes a 25.4 to 31.8 handlebar shim; I used one to get my first pair
of Maes Parallels to fit my Ritchey stem. Rivendell and Analog sell them.

I use the Maes Parallel on 3 bikes and IMO it's the best road drop bar on
the market at least for non-brifter brake levers: longish reach, long flat
ramps, modest drop, flat hooks. It does come in 31.8.

Re: [RBW] Is there a 31.8 clamp drop bar comparable to a Nitto Noodle 54cm?

2022-12-08 Thread Conway Bennett
Scott,

I ride tumbleweed prospector bars for the last 6 months with a discord 
fingerling stem, but I like drops but got used to the width.  I did 
purchase the new 54 cm Nitto noodle, but I have not ridden it yet.  My dark 
horse pick for wide bars is the vo rando bar that comes in 50 cm wide.  
Since I have these, I can't justify the Renee Herse option at 4x the price.

Re: [RBW] Is there a 31.8 clamp drop bar comparable to a Nitto Noodle 54cm?

2022-12-08 Thread 'Scott Luly' via RBW Owners Bunch
 Steve,
Thank you! That's exactly the kind of direction I was looking for. I'll have a 
look at the RH Randonneur as a 31.8 option.
Happy Holidays,
Scott

Faceplater to facilitate cockpit changes.

Anyone know of a comparable bar or solution? Maybe I should just get a Noodle 
and stem for change outs...
Also, am I on the right track going with a Noodle (54cm cuz I'm tall)? I plan 
on using it as a cockpit option for my Atlantis build.

Happy Holidays,
Scott

[RBW] Is there a 31.8 clamp drop bar comparable to a Nitto Noodle 54cm?

Hey, all:

I'm wanting to try a 54cm Nitto Noodle drop, but I want to keep my 31.8 
Faceplater to facilitate cockpit changes.

Anyone know of a comparable bar or solution? Maybe I should just get a 
Noodle and stem for change outs...

Also, am I on the right track going with a Noodle (54cm cuz I'm tall)? I 
plan on using it as a cockpit option for my Atlantis build.

Happy Holidays,
