The first batch of bars will be here around early Dec.<br /><br />@A,<br />The noodles, or any drop bar, wouldn't detract from the gravel/dirt road experience, although you may not be allowed on some of the cooler trails without our crazy bars ;) MTB riding would be harder with drops because you wouldn't have the ability to turn very quickly. This is due to the position of your body over the front end and less leverage due to a narrower bar.VeloOrangehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06814029344407654254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-27228597836464339172013-10-24T12:20:58.058-04:002013-10-24T12:20:58.058-04:00The bars are great.

I intend to ride this bike long distances on mixed road / trail, mostly trail.
