Bike Anti-Porn - When Things Go Wrong

It looks like someone hunched over shitting, somehow.

Will sell well in Dubai

The ultimate douchbag collaboration Lamborghini and Ironman. You can just imaging owners of both having a tattoo of each logo on each bicep as a ‘conversation starter’

Reminds me of that other yellow bartaped bike in anti.

Miaow, pussycat

Canyon's new Hover bar.....

... you'd think they would have checked whether any famously litigious competitors would already have a Hover bar.

Did somebody just jump the gun on the April 1st post?

No, but I jumped the gun on that joke though.

I still pray it is a joke

Industry in-joke? Top trolling? Either way, I do not want.

In all seriousness, this could help with tendonitis in thumbs on rides involving alot of heavy braking on descents. I have this problem, and have double wrapped the tops of my bars and wear two pairs of gloves, but my hands are still wrecked from repeated impacts after going off road and I have had to almost give it up.

Or get a proper mountain bike with a front shock and stop pissing around with all this 'gravel' 'cx' bullshit

...stop pissing around with all this 'gravel' 'cx' bullshit

hear hear.

its like when 'hybrid' bikes were a thing.
its either just a cx bike or an mtb with drop bars and shit tyres.
or a road bike built wrong.

a vw bug with offroad tyres doesnt suddenly become a beach buggy does it?

How could you operate brakes while on the “flexy” tops?
The best scenario with these bars would be getting tendonitis in thumbs while on drops as the “bridge” is on the freaking way where the thumb would normally be.

How could you operate brakes while on the “flexy” tops?

I mostly brake from cross-top levers, which is easiest on the hands, or from the hoods, the ball of my thumb resting on the shoulder of the bar. I ony really brake from the drops on fast road descents.

Ok, for a moment I thought you were talking of the possibility of fitting cross-top levers on the Red Baron bars.

Only one here that doesn't mind?

What's the purpose of the build?
