I got one of those surly cornerbars (offbrand) and they're fucking great, would recommend to everyone. Easily the most comfy handlebars I've ever owned.

Also currently trying to piece together the perfect small size at most medium weight bicycle EDC pouch to chuck in my panniers so I can field repair my entire shit and also help other people.

Pretty sure I'll put some bar ends in there just to slap them into random bicycles so people don't core sample themselves. I am the velocipedal crusader, you will be saved from doctors having to extract a tubular 21mm cross section of yourself so they can figure out what the fuck you managed to lose because you didn't think to put 50 eurodollarcents of bar ends on your stuff.

this always seems kind of dumb until you realize every road was cobblestone and the metallurgy to produce chains wasn't quite mass market ready and then it makes perfect sense. The big wheel both serves as gears and also makes you just roll over most gaps in cobblestone
