I take you just have enough toe clearance with that front fender?
Happy trails with it,

| I could ride it | appleSSeed
Jan 11, 2004 8:29 AM | | my cannondale crit road bike has geometry like that...at first you must be careful which foot leads when you turn, but after a while you don't even think about it. I do it with all my bikes now I think...probably looks pretty goofy |
| Plenty of toe clearance [o] | shiggy©®
Jan 11, 2004 5:53 PM | | And this is with 185 cranks and size 45 shoes
I put 35 mm Michelin Transworld City tires on and did a 30 mile road ride. Rides well and better than I expected. I will be hitting the dirt on it soon. |
| Nice! Looks great Shiggy! | GlowBoy
Jan 11, 2004 11:04 PM | | Interested in how it rides - and in what what you think of the Mythos II after a few times out. |
| Just curious--have you ever set up dirt drops with STI? | D_man
Jan 12, 2004 10:33 AM | | I have a pair of dirt drops and am currently running STI on my cross bike. Seeing the flair on your Salsa CX bars reminded me of this question. |
