Love the paint job. Don't really get the super narrow bars on an off road machine though. 😮

Given that he will be on some interesting gravel this may be a handful. However, I love the retro paint job and what he did to the bike.

[JackMott]

I used to run “aero or die” bars kinda like that, they were great. People were always worried for my on twisty TTs but they were no problem at all. Just had to take care where ya train on em!

I'd definitely ride such a bike : this is very close to my perfect gravel bike!

[pongauer]

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder I guess. I seriously doubt how you will handle trickier gravel sections with such a narrow handlebar. Why not just add an aerobar on top? You will lose more time on technical sections with those bars then you will gain from the weightreduction of the aerobars.

Would love to ride this trippy gravel. Red tires would be rockin'. Wicked crazy ride.🤪 Got water?💦Those handlebars, wild paint job.🎨 Love it!! 💘 🔥💕😀⚡🚲

Those riding positions would ruin my already ruined neck. I like the bike, but I'd go with a shorter stem and wider bars.

Why is he on a smaller size? I know the topstone in size xl is huge so he wouldn’t that crazy long stem. Why is he on a large of even a medium size bike? I would be scared racing that long stem.

[Turbobuttes]

Not sure I'd ride it, but I have to give the man credit for thinking outside of the box, not lastly for the unholy bastard child of drop bars and aero bars.

[Saltydog]

This act is super dangerous. slight miscalculation of height could result in serious injury or decapitation. Don't attempt it at home.

All i see is a 90s mtb with modern tech

[Fyoutube]

Not hard to tell what this guy is all about lol

[brittle]

how the heck is there a rear derailleur for a 50T

[mrtnknrr]

Gravel is about exploring and being adventurous. If you’re this much into being aero and fast, try road cycling.

[lahyessam]

Maybe I’m narrow minded but those bars are kinda retar…..ed
