thazz my dear nelson. Need some new bars

I can swap my 620mm easton monkey lite to something nice, atleast 720mm wide 25.4 low rise bars

It's very rad well done, itching to build mine up again now. Few more bits needed

Thanks. I think I like it so much because it reminds me so much of one of my earliest bikes:

God I loved that thing. But then I was big enough for a 20" BMX and never went back.

This i ride :)
city Bregovo.. country Bulgaria..
Fuji Espree

this is spot on

All steel beater.needs final adjustments (hs,b-lever,s-lever,brakes...) and a cable-job

does this happen to be a giant custom super lite?

i think i have the same frame, great beater.

Yes.If i remember correctly.a friend found it at the local dump.i added parts and stickered it and made it my do-all-beater.

those giants are quite light and decent frames, if intact. Im planning on building a randonneur with mine.... panniers, decent tyres, gears etc.

drop some money in yours, you won't regret it ;-)

its the bike i use most.no need 2 drop money in it.got everything i need.just added a new nitto bullmoose.
best part is that it got clearance 4 bruce-gordons and those turning it into a 29er-light.

Oh shit I so badly want some of these.

loominarty confirmed

Don't get the advantage of a bar that weighs almost a kilo and has less adjustment than a two parter.

thats why they are on the beater.

its the last set bruce gordon had laying around in his petaluma shop.

because they cost so much?

u right.i got carried away a lil bit....
but the 50$ i payed seems a ok deal compared to buying them from rivendell for 160$.
still a lot of cash for a beater.

a better argument at that price

Verry noice. Love those Canti dropouts What forks you got on that? 1" no?

My good friend Kalle's bike, 1 1/4" cannondale r800 with a 1 1/4" to 1 1/8" headset :)
