The nichemongers will buy Specialized because all the other nichemongers have used up every other niche.

Either that or cyclocross tyres for mud...

oi, i have been superstitiously warding off torrential rain at bike events by bringing my 26" scwalbe cx pro's with me for 2 years. Only ever fitted them once though, to do a cross race.

the current bandwagon is wide low handle bars but there is not technical adantage to these.they are purely marketing and fashion for mindless sheep.
i must remember to trim down my 750mm bars on my bikes because ive seem to be going around the corners to fast these days.
