Hey folks! I saw this picture - perhaps posted here?
If I've annexed this pic from someone here, please forgive me.
http://www.ncf.ca/~af895/bars.jpg
I understand these are "trekking bars."
http://www.nashbar.com/profile.cfm?sku=9756&srccode=1067
Anyone use them and like them? Looking for something with more hand
positions than my straight bar. (that sounded kinky)
Any comments on the additional bar-ends that have been added to the
trekking-bars in the photo? They appear to add another hand position - sort
of "aero." Is this a common setup?
___________________________
While I'm at it - I have a stem I don't know how to adjust. It has two bolts
running sideways. I gather it's called "direct connect" - I only have
experience with other kinds.
All loosening the bolts does is let me rotate the bars in relation to the
wheel. How do I raise the thing? (or maybe I'm FUBAR and need a new stem if
I want more height...?)
Thanks folks!
Chris
