  • Currently building an old lugged mtb into a fun times adventure bike on a student budget, anyone have a lead on a cheap dirt drops with a 25.4 clamp diameter or am I doomed to shell out for Nitto? (Nitto are great obvs, but i've got the rest of the build for like $70 so the handlebar alone doubles the cost)

  • Google ‘north road’ handlebars. These are the type used on some Dutch and town bikes. Try lbs bargain bins. Sometimes they’re steel (no bad thing).

    They work great as dirt drops when flipped.

    Sometimes... they were ugly as sin on my bike. Though maybe the all-round ugliness of the rest of it was a factor in that.
