[#4659592]

In my search for comfy bars, I have got a pair of fleegles. I like my Mary's, but they are on the singlespeed. Can't stand normal bars.

So they are on, I am fixing a puncture and will test them this afternoon.
They are weird, feel weird and any tips on angles ?

They seem to drop down, so are lower, but the same height from the ground as other bars.

On a 26 scandal, with a 17 degree stem.

Any thoughts?

Love mine what do you mean they drop down? They sweep back but are flat.

I noticed that when I initially fitted mine I had them mounted in more of a dropped position but a quick rotation saw to that.

Comfy bars with a much more neutral riding position ... I like them.

Cheers, maybe an optical illusion as the bars taper.
Yet to ride, but may chop down to the pro version.

Like the pace, why cable disc brakes?

Like the bike, what's the stem?

I quite like mine but tbh they're no different to a my Salsa flat bars with a longer stem. Feels like oddness for its own sake.

cable discs because they rock...

Anyone tried the Bingo bars?

What are these like with a rigid fork? I had a pair of On-One risers which I liked but were brutally stiff. Switching to carbon made a huge difference
