Bombadil - Noodle Update

[Marty]

When the Bullmoose bars went to the Quickbeam, I wanted to try out a Dirt-drop/Noodle bar combo on the Bombadil, and it worked out great. Wrapped the bars in Eggplant yesterday, and I love the Purple/Silver combo too. Not sure if I should use clear or amber bug juice on them yet - anyone try either one over purple yet? Getting' hot again in Chicago, so a short ride for a few photos was it for today:

Check out the set for more photos one the various evolutions. I'm tempted to try the Boscos, but the Noodles feel real nice.

Clear bug juice for Newbaum's eggplant looks great on my Moustache. Amber does not seem ideal in my head; I've used it on red-ish colors and gray and white with good effect, though.

I'm a sucker for drop bars and mountain bikes. This is the best this already amazing bike has looked yet. But of course now it's time to get it all scratched up and dirty!

For some reason my reply got deleted, but I say go with the clear, that purple looks sharp and I would try and keep it that light rather than turning it into a dark maroon.

Hey! I ride 37 or 38 cm (at hoods; they flare to 41 or 42 at the ends
of the hooks) Maes parallels and I am 5'10" with an Anglo six-footer's
torso.

I do like the Noodles, tho' found the 42s more comfortable than the
46s. Nice flat ramps that you can set up flat while keeping the ends
of the hooks also flat, which I prefer. Very like the Maeses in
overall feel, tho' deeper.

. On Grant's recommendation, I went with a 44cm noodle, rather than my
usual 40 cm bars. If I remember correctly, he said "only Japanese
women ride 40cm bars"!
