I can't see that being comfortable or efficient, why would you even?

It's hard to believe it but it will be comfortable as your hands hold the bars in a very open position and your chest opens for more efficient breathing

Bullshit

You'll also shuffle uncomfortably forward on the saddle due to arms being more open, and the wrists would begin to ache due to being at a silly angle.

I got wrist ache from riding 680mm for a month, wouldn't go wider

Super wide bars are the new super narrow bars.

I'm sure Chris Hoy had breathing efficiency problems while using 33cm bars and winning multiple gold medals:

And yes, cutting through traffic is an issue with 72, I have no inerest in trying 75cm

yeah i'm sure Richie Rudes wrists were fucked after winning the EWS last season. IF ONLY he'd been on here to realise he needs 33cm drops

You're comparing a controlled fall off of a mountain to a city bike for appropriate equipment? I haven't noticed suspension on any of your rats.

all my bikes that have risers have 700mm+ bars

I haven't noticed suspension on any of your rats

orly?

I stand corrected, though I don't remember that one.
I still say it's silly for non-supermen to have bars that wide.

Was referring to this collection of stuff:

Not worth a whole thread, but got my Timberline to a state of bouncy, happy goodness.

That looks sick, bet the tyres are so comfy!

That looks delightful!! The chain not slip when the power is put down?

It did to begin with (I bought a new freehub as I thought it was slipping) but one less link and it hasn't done it since!

I drove it through every pothole and drain cover on the way in this morning... Tyres and frame smoothed out everything I threw at it!

So good. someone buy my timberline frame and do this to it!

picked up my Merckx at the sprayer today. Just to late for some sunday summer touring.
