I wrapped my handlebars. It was a fever dream.

I retired some Ritchey Beacon XL 52 CM bars and Campagnolo 11s Chorus brifters.

My new bars are Beacon 44cm. I am using TRP levers and a 12s bar end shifter.

Brooks Cambium tape is my fav. I get pretty sweaty and I don’t need gloves. It is mega durable. I haven’t wrapped drop bars in years. I just followed what Calvin on the Park Tool told me to do.

I organized my frame bag too. I really didn’t need all 6 packets of Via.

Thanks for reading!

Do you take it off sweet jumps!?

My pizza date ghosted me, so I went out and hit some sweet jumps for a dopamine boost. Why, Art Hottie?

I have a new drivetrain on my bike. The Campy 11s was mostly worn out.

The new bits are:
Ekar RD, cassette, chain
110mm SKS BB
170mm PURPLE Paul crank arms
36t Ratio chainring
12s bar end shifter
