So we are out on a family ride yesterday and my wife is telling me how much she loves the cork grips and the Sequoia in general, but why are the shifters still on the down tube? It is realy fun being able to build bikes up and share the stoke. I remember having the conversation on this, none the less I was off to the parts bin with a score had been saving for just such a build…
The barcon shifter orientation part of my brain thought these would work well this way. The reality is that they are much better flipper over with the Suntour logo facing down they way they were meant to face on a flat bar.
