Bike Check

Tyler has been riding his commuter a lot lately (as opposed to he 700cmx), and recently has been completing his “dream build”… H Plus Son Formation Face rims with machined anodized braking surface the front built to an Ultegra hub, and the rear Alfine hub both 24 hole as they come with the stock wheel build. Jitensha Studio bars, which feel pretty sweet, with a little more solid feel to them as opposed to the Nitto Dove bars. New 130 DA stem in the mail, and probably throwing a Rolls saddle and TRP brakes on there for good measure.  Next he wants a traditional steel road frame with a lugged fork even, if you know Tyler, this is a surprise!

Good work!

jitensha bars feel really good, not sure why we didn’t start with them, look amazing too. On the subject of bars, I tried the new MAP & Ahearne Bars out recently and was pretty into em’, I’m kinda on a transportation kick lately, not that I wasn’t before…

Also, there is a complete set on flickr.
