That sucker is f'n cool. I love my two monster cross bike and looking to build custom this summer. How do you like the woodchippers? I'll post up a pic of my Fisher here latter.

The woodchippers are awesome there super wide, they give the bike great stability for descents and great leverage for climbing.

Cool man, what tires you running on your bike. My buddie has the midge bars on his crosscheck. He likes them better than the woodchippers. The drops are a little different betwwen the two but the widths are about the same.

yep one of the reasons I bought it, but I need gears for a race I'm doing this summer. They are Bontrager XDX 1.75, there is room for a 2.0 tire if I want.
