Hi,
Not exactly 29er related but probably/possibly of interest to those who come here.
I'm hoping to take part in this http://www.3peakscyclocross.org.uk/ and if you take the time to look at the photos you'll probably come to the conclusion that a nice wide bar would be useful.
I would really like to use my On-One Midge bar but as this is a cyclocross race, the bar width is limited to 50cm. I like the midge for it's shallow drop and the flaring that makes for a comfortable wrist position. I'd then like to put top mounted brake levers for extra control/comfort in the descents.
Unfortunatly the midge is wider than 50cm. Does anybody know of a bar that is no wider than 50cm and has a flared and/or shallow drop?
And if Brant is reading, any chance of you making a 'Midget' bar that would meet the above width regulaiton for cyclo cross racing?
warm regards to everyone
Rob
