As promised, pictures of the Road Warrior for Tom and all others interested in custom fit problems.

This is my answer to the Flat bar/Drop bar question. Ausilary cyclocross levers on a Biomax (short drop, short reach) bar. 17deg stem turned upsidedown to raise the bar. Stem is much shorter then when the bike was built as a flat bar touring bike. I still have 0 standover clearance but the bike fits my trunk and works pretty well for a short legged rider.

I promise to ride this more this year. In the past it has only come out for vacations where road riding was the prefered style. You can do this TOM
