Great response.

Just admit you messed up and didn't know better, then fix it.

Had a puncture yesterday. Fixed that. If anything else goes wrong I'll attend to it, you may be sure.

Dancing to the beat of a different drum is a good thing, sometimes.

Beat me too it.

Do you have the flexibility of a 80y/o man?

Flip them bars and slam that stem grandad.

Context is everything. This is not comparable.

Granted @rw101 has got two brakes and single speed but his choice of bars and the direction of their facing is his business. If it works for him and he likes it that's all that matters isn't it?
It was a nice blue.

the sweep of risers is backwards for a reason; twisting your wrists inward is anatomically not comfortable.
@rw101 believe me, flip the risers 180degrees in the horizontal plane and your wrists are gonna thank you for it.
xthanksbai

you see what obree did there; twist his wrists outward? why? its how the damn joint works. look at car steering wheels, computer mouses and door handles; you twist your wrist outwards.

I'm getting a bit confused with words but, what i mean is from the axis of the arm relative to your body; I.e. you twist your wrist away from your body. try it; right arm clockwise: comfortable. counterclockwise uncomfortable. science! medicine, dude

Could you not just buy a Specialized Sirrus?

i could but this was cheaper

edit: just googled sirrus .. fuck me they are overpriced!

Thanks, but you are over-interpreting. There is a slight forward inclination to the grips, but it is so very slight it makes no difference. And I really don't like bars that are as straight as the Kingsland Road.

As for the bars being the 'wrong way around', they ain't the wrong way around for me. My whole schtick in building bikes is to get the bars and riding weight further forward, it's the only comfortable position for me.

Stunning ! Peilleux is under-rated but his production is amazing..

Going a bit slave on my Air pursuit..

Currently thinking about selling it, how much this frameset worth to your point of view ?

Otherwise tuning is comming

Then risers aint for you homie

Vraiment propre ton plongeant HACHA !
Le truc en bas a gauche c'est pour decapsuler les bieres?
