@makko actually flipped thomson stem mid-day last week and rode home with inverted risers.. Not pretty but did the job
Got a less overkill stem same length as thomson to go with compact drops


Hasn't been put on the bike yet, just a Mock up... Not really rushed because of current conditions

@edscoble Would surely be an upgrade to steel fork currently mounted on other frame no?

^^ sum thing more along these lines... Minus the layback post.. Setup from a few winters past

@Tijs, might splash monies on some rubber champ grips maybe, the rest will be decided when it's time to replace ounce worn out

Went out today on drops much milder wind/half dry roads was much more pleasant than anticipated... When the wind picks up in wet conditions I'm going to try a negative rise stem with flop n chopped bars instead of risers to help duck wind

Tempted to squeeze some 32c's for winter so long as they fit

^ makes sense,.. I will admit being a slave to habit
So much kinder to my back having upright posture in the saddle, especially while wearing a backpack
Might try a stem to stretch out a bit more or swap out risers in the rain for drops to help shift more weight forward
Haven't had any issues with sore back or neck because of such a compact bikefit
Thanks for the input

Any suggestions on how to anchor down front end in 45 mph winds?

Hit a side gust and drifted into the next lane involuntarilyFully adjusted to the damp weather by just embracing the inevitability of wet feet
