The dumbest/best bars e-var
I think I'm going to add a set of these to the inner flats of my riser bars:
From this advancement, I will gain another hand position, some hill-descending speed, and the goofiest-looking bar setup ever.
These on the ends of the bars would actually create something I wish existed- dirt drops with rise. Again, totally dorky looking.
Yee haw. I wonder if they run Linux?
(sorry, wrong forum)

I've seen the same idea, only more curvy. They look exactly like a second set of drops.

better be some perfect welds, but more positions is always good, specially on a long haul.

I'm sure you know this already, but the diameter of risers isn't the same as the diameter of drops
(and i'm not just talking clamp diameter here)
so you might need a 1/16" shim to get these to work....
