slim1der:It was raining all day and the trails were closed. Atlanta Streets Alive was going on, but to be perfectly honest I was just feeling really lazy. We went to church and after that the kiddo had a jazz band concert (which he killed BTW). After that I was kinda bored so I started rummaging around the parts bin and came across an old Chromag downhill-esque bar. I decided to throw them on the Retrotec for giggles. I’d been running jonesbars on this bike for the last two years and have loved them so I really was planning a swap and swap back kinda afternoon. The only grip I had laying around were a mismatched set of ergon super comfy grips (I don’t even think they make these anymore). The right grip is gripshift length and black. The left grip is the regular size and cork. Anyhoo, ten minutes later I decided to spin around the ATL in the rain. Man! You couldn’t wipe the grin off my face! The super wide bars let me huck the massive 29x3 tires around (and by huck I mean old-man-huck off curbs and such). This is definitely going to be the set up for a while. Or at least till the next bike packing trip. -- source link
