Well now I'm a 'Dale owner too! Are you getting a clamp for the 1 1/4"!part of the handle bars? Everything I see is for the 7/8!part near the ends, and the large ear selectors seem to ale up most of that area. I just ordered little saddle bag like thing th goes across the top tube and strap around the fork tupe so it won't slide back. There is a clear covered pocket on the top so you can see the phone. My bikeing shorts don't have any pocket for mt phone, wallet, or keys. I plan on using that in place of a little wedge under the seat for my tools, the, and inflator.

Of course I have only put my first 30 miles on mine ( just got it Friday) but I love this bike. Mine is the bright green. That is the only thing I don't like, but the color is growing on me. Lots of nice thing said about my "new" bike! Not even thinking about it, I find I'm going a good deal faster on some of the trails I normally ride. It's not e faster I'm thinking about as much as how much more "road bike" it feels (which is a good thing for me).

Of course I feel I look a little foolish. Fat old man on Star bride green super cool bike. But I guess I don't really care. My Uncle is lots older and just as heavy, and I think he is just fine!
