That's a wrap!

[FeistySquirrel]

Or should I say, time for a re-wrap... Look at the state of these! I've been meaning to get them done for quite a few weeks now... They just get worse and worse!

Should be getting them RE wrapped tomorrow with some Lizard Skins

We'll look forward to the 'after' shots.
I always tend to leave jobs which don't affect efficiency/ safety.

You have certainly had your moneys worth that's for sure

By 'quite a few weeks' I assume you mean 'a few years' you lazy fecker.....and everyone knows that the better you look, the faster you go. As punishment, I demand that you treat yourself to some nice sparkly new white bar tape.

 

[FeistySquirrel]

Nope, weeks, when it started to rip.

I only bought the bike in October.... Cheap tape I thinks! And noooo, no white tape, black bike, black tape, black everything.

I will also use the RE wrap as en excuse to cut all the cable ties off and ghetto camera mount, and fit a proppa one. Maybe try shorten my light cable too so I don't have to wrap it around the bars...

I'll get a photo in a bit for a better before and after.

Lovely jubly! (ignore the cheap stem.. I got it to see which length I needed and not swapped it out yet!)

 

[MrPie]

Nice job Feisty, apart from being black of course. I've done a wee bit of stem length tinkering too - ended up splurging on a Retul bke fit, which made a big difference to ride comfort. I note your handlebar is on wide end of the spectrum (may just be the photography), but just to let you know that I went for a narrower bar, which also made a comfort difference.

Wish I could wrap bars as good as that good job well done

 

[FeistySquirrel]

I should add, I didn't wrap them.. Apart from working 40hrs in 4 days with very early start.... I've never really been very good at that mind of thing.... So I went to the bloke down the road who's just setup a Mobile bike fix business.

I find the wide bars fine... The shop I bought from was unfortunately not very good in the end didn't even fit me to it when I bought it... Measuring up the frame is a tad big but with some adjustments here and there its bow very comfortable
