• late to the party. recognise the first bike - Hollow Legs? Watched all the vids on youtube. great stuff :-)

    I'm building a fixed gravel bike at the min, wondering what the vibe is with wide mtb bars? I like the ones with almost no rise, but how wide?? Any recomendations?

  • I dunno if it’s because I don’t really ride any geared bikes but my favourite thing about my fixed gravel bike is that it isn’t useless on the road.

    Like, I’d ride my ssmtb more but it’s just such a chore to get anywhere on it

    To that end I probably would want to go too wide in the bars. I’m currently using some Planet X bullmoose bars on mine and I really like them. Good for the aero tuck on the road sections.

  • I think there's a lot of personal fit and preference involved. If it were me, I'd buy some super wide bars and a hacksaw :)
