I am fortunate enough to commute through two parks on my way to work. In the summer I add 30 minutes each way by hitting some singletrack and other dirt. So I put my 26″ wheels on my Cannondale Badboy.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

But the seat that came with the badboy was not friendly to my taint. So I replaced it with a Flite, my seat of choice for the past 15 years. So psyched they are making it again.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

I also put on carbon bars, to take the edge of the rigid fork.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

And the key piece in this, titec bar ends.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Oh why did they ever go out of style? They are great for climbing. They do look ridiculous on riser bars, I guess they fell out of fashion when riser bars got popular. <\/p>\n

This turned out to be my 90s themed commuter ride.<\/p>\n

Bringing it backwards is a great song by Lifetime.
