Another Fine Tune Adjusment on my Strada
I just swapped out my first generation 2003 handlebars on my Bacchetta
Strada for a new set. The combination of changes to the bends and the length of the segments between the bends along with the narrowing of the handlbars 18.75 vs 22 inches is a winner! Jim |

The first generation Bacchetta handlebars were very wide visually - looked like something off a huge single-speed cruiser. -- Tom Sherman - 42.435731,-83.985007 LOCAL CACTUS EATS CYCLIST - datakoll |

The narrower handlebars are visually much more attractive. I was introduced to the bars and Bacchetta's Euromesh seat at a BROL event in New York probably 3 years ago. Actually, it was Mark Colliton of Bacchetta that insisted I try his bike after seeing that I still had the WIDE handlebars and the MISERABLE fiberglass M5 style seat. Well I got around to swapping the seat within a year (no more bone jarring, teeth chattering rides). I wish I had gotten to the bars as quickly! Tom, it's nice to see you are still here in ARBR land.... Jim Reilly aka stratrider Reading, PA.... still |

But I am still here too, ready to pounce on anyone who gets out of hand. Regards, Ed Dolan the Great - Minnesota aka Saint Edward the Great - Order of the Perpetual Sorrows - Minnesota |

Truth is that I lost interest in ARBR for quite a while. I can say with 10 years of recumbent riding behind me that I have never lossed interest in the recumbent. I still can't get enough of them! Happy riding Ed! Jim |
