The risers are temporary. I'll take delivery of a Surly Torsion Bar tomorrow. As much as I loved the Nitto cruiser bars, they lacked off-road. I almost bought the Titec H-bar, but thought I'd give the Surly a try. The Gnashbar riser ain't too bad, a bit narrow, but I don't like the up-sweep. If I don't like the Surly bar, I'll go for the Mary or H-bar next.
The torsion bar is sweet, I've been diggin' on my buddy's pugsly that has that bar. I like that bar a lot.
The Titec H-Bar is cool as well. My girlfriend runs the H-bar on her mountain bike and loves it. I like its stability in slow techy stuff and hand options when long haul truckin', but haven't really clicked with it in faster XC type stuff.

Those orange muffins look mighty tasty. An enviable weekend, my friend. Looks like the boys had a blast as well.
Switched to the riser bars I see, just for this trip or were the other bars not working?
Hey Thad!
