Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Looking for opinions on this handlebar
Hey i was thinking of swapping my bikes original straight riser bars with this flat bar. https://chargebikes.com/parts/straw/
I'm most likely gonna put a front brake on it. Any one have a brake on bars like this one or have tips or opinions about it?

Bikes: everywhere

I would want it if it didn't have those plugs and was about 160mm wider.
