The build looks really nice.
Thanks, man.😊
Great build!!! I’ve built a few SS and love it. So many style and setup options. Gorgeous bike.
Thanks! Kind of sad they've stopped making these.
Are thos interrupter levers or tt levers?
These are bar end levers, or what some people like to call TT levers.
@@watchesnwheels how do they feel compared to dropbars?
@@gattocat3729 Here's how I would break down the experience:
1) Braking: just about the same as any drop bar/ interrupter/ flat bar brakes I had tried on this bike. I think the cable housing and brake calipers themselves make up most of the braking.
2) General feel: mostly contributed by the bars themselves. Bullhorns/ pursuit bars just feel faster. Practically speaking, I didn't see a difference in braking/ riding speeds or stopping distances.
@@watchesnwheels thanks alot mate. Read somewhere that bullhorns are technically more aero than drops although I'm not really sure how true that is
