#DropBar

@mowsw @tfrank_de Ein #Dropbar Fatbike steht noch auf meiner Bucketlist, für die Tage an denen man zwischendurch sehr schnell zum #Südpol und wieder zurück radeln will.

Get a Grepp
Following the recommendation of fellow Fediversers I got myself some plastic free bar tape produced by the swedish company Grepp. It is made from plant based fibers which are woven into a strong fabric. It can be cleaned by hand washing and then reused. Instead of an adhesive strip on the underside the Grepp tape is rubberised, so it doesn't slip on the handlebars. And since it is made from sturdy Tencel fiber you can really tighten it down without breaking it. The tape comes in 15 different colours and patterns. If you're looking for a cheaper option, they also offer some B-ware tape with slight imperfections.

If you're interested, check out https://www.grepp.cc/ for more information.

New saddle
I got a new saddle for my gravel bike. It's the Selle Italia SLR boost TM in size S3, which is the narrower option. This will replace the SQlab 611 ergowave active, which I (ab)used since 2013 on multiple bikes.

Why do I replace this saddle, which looks to be in good condition?
While the surface material doesn't show too much wear, the padding and plastic shell is mostly done for. Since 2013 I have used it for an estimated 70 000km give or take.
Also since I moved to a dropbar bike with a different body position than on flatbar bikes, the wide shell caused some chafing and irritations on the inside of my thighs.

Saddles are the most personal part of your bike as the majority of your body weight rests on it and it can make or break your rides. They have to suit your butt or rather seat bones, soft tissue, body position, thighs and Sitzfleisch - meaning what your butt is used to in terms of seating surface and padding. So hopefully we get along nicely for another 70 000km or so. The initial test ride was promising, but you really only can tell after a good couple of hundred kilometers.

Heute mal wieder ein paar Freizeitkilometer auf‘s Konto. Kalt, aber größtenteils menschenleer und einfach schön. Passt sogar zum .

Im Vordergrund sieht man ein orangenes Fahrrad, das an einer Bank lehnt, im Hintergrund, Hügel,wälder und eine Ortschaft. Der Himmel ist bewölkt und es ist sehr kalt. Links und rechts des Bildes sieht man Grafiken über die Strecke die gefahrenen Kilometer und die Zeit.

Ich hätte vorher nicht gedacht, wie wenig Probleme ich mit dem #Dropbar #Lenker habe/hatte.

Normalerweise bin ich etwas empfindlich mit Gewicht auf den Handgelenken.
Aber auch auf langen Touren hatte ich bisher nie solche Probleme mit den Händen wie vorher am Treckingrad. Auch gabe es keinerlei Probleme mit dem Nacken oder im Gelände. Eher im Gegenteil.

=> manchmal sind Bedenken einfach unbegründet.
