Yup, those surly open bars have a lot of real estate before the curves. Very trimmable. -Kai BKNY -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to

Per the bar database, it looks as if the Surly Open is the best bet, leading the Soma Sparrow by a hair. Great! Thanks again. On Mon, Nov 19, 2018 at 11:36 AM Patrick Moore wrote: > I'm trying to fine tune the bar setup on my Dahon Hon Solo. I can't use a > drop bar -- my default type and

Justin: on more sober and mature reflection, your suggestion is entirely apt, and I will indeed check out the app. In my flippant haste, and because I'd not followed the handlebar database thread earlier, the possible utility of a look didn't hit me hard enough to sink in. I will look. Thanks,

Have you noticed that if you select the Crust Towel Rack, Poppi's face is in the background? I just cracked up at work. What a nice little easter egg. On Monday, November 19, 2018 at 3:13:16 PM UTC-8, Justin, Oakland wrote: > > Oh MAN! > 1) Goto http://whatbars.com > 2) Select Nitto Mustache >

I owned them but don't remember the width (they seemed narrowish to me). The answer about road levers is uhhh maybe. My wild guess is you could position them right at the center of the bend and have enough room between blade and bar. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to

Can anyone say how wide these are at the curves? And could one use road levers at the curves? If not too wide, and if I could trim the usual statutory 2" off each end, perhaps they might work, though they might be a wee bit *too* close. On Mon, Nov 19, 2018 at 1:49 PM Joe Bernard wrote: > V-O

I should have added that a nice narrow curve that is 1" closer to the stem clamp is what I am looing for. On Mon, Nov 19, 2018 at 11:36 AM Patrick Moore wrote: > I'm trying to fine tune the bar setup on my Dahon Hon Solo. I can't use a > drop bar -- my default type and much, much preferred over
