What is that? Thought it was a Rivendell from the head tube but the interesting fork isn't something I've seen

What do the bars measure now?

780 now, but removing little at time.

780 now, but removing little at time.

3 of my bikes are 760. Got a T429 that came with 780 alloy bars and just went to 800 carbon and leaving it there, for now.

So, just finished a ride and I’m not sure if I’m going to remove more at this time …. I’m going to get more miles and different terrain before another move is made!

not sure which ones you have, but if they are bleeding edge it is actually impossible to screw up, they are THAT EASY

If they were willing to pay $50 for a bleed kit they probably would have just paid us to do it.

Despite being a year old bike, it’s not bleeding edge.🥺

I also went from the OEM 55mm stem, to 40mm, to 32mm with the 800mm bar.

I’m just being a big baby. I’ve done a zillion Shimano bleeds w/out issue but this DOT fluid stuff wigs me out. Stupid micro bubble crap.
