The bar mitts are so ugly, according to my partner, that she doesn't want to be associated with me and they are quite the conversation pieces for the parents at preschool.
On the other hand they were cheap to make and really keep my hands warm(maybe another 10/15 degrees of protection)! If I were Jan Heine I'd say something counter intuitive about aero benefits ...

Ok, time for a review.
Someone said that the Peregrine seems like frame that can become a like a good friend.
Edit: also I apologise for the picture that has very little bike and castle in it and more than enough shadow of a slow and poor photographer
I can only agree, I've used it for my commute and all errands, basically everything that's not MTB or child hauling.
I've used it with three different wheel set-ups and they really bring out different and good experiences (except maybe the studded front tire that's a necessary evil).
Today I took the first longer ride and it was nice considering my poor fitness and the crisp -6 C (intervals or hill climbing obviously needs to be a bigger part of my regiment if I want to go further and faster)and I forsee another rear wheel focused around a lighter pair of terawail 38s to pair with a dynamo wheel.
I'll update when I have gathered the courage to tackle dynamo wiring and routing
The picture is from Sturehov Castle, if you're ever in the neighborhood, I recommend a visit to their café.
