Question new cyclist needs advice - butterfly bars on Trek 7.2
Hi all,

Would someone please be kind enough to offer an opinion on changing the handlebars on my 2012 Trek 7.2 FX to butterfly bars? I really need something other than flat bars and I don't think drops are an option, but correct me if changing to drops, can, in fact, be done. I am mostly curious if a different stem is desired/required when changing the flats to butterfly bars?

Also, the LBS does not stock butterfly bars (if you know of anyone who does near Erie, PA please let me know). Since I apparently must order online, does anyone know of a source that actually lists the dimensions of the bars?

Thanks in advance.

J.
