My Birdy Rohloff 3rd Gen and a new (and final?) bar mod

Let’s call the bar „The Antlers“ 🤭

Basically

  • Ergon Cork GP5
  • Ergotec Bar Ends Evo 1 (modified, so they fit as Inner Bar ends)
  • Ergotec Lady Town (30° backsweep, 620mm)
  • Cinelli Cork Ribbon

The Rest a stock Birdy Rohloff 3rd gen

Additionally with a Pacific Cycle Chain Tensioner, the new Birdy extension stem by Pacific Cycle and an SQLabs Ergolux 602 Active 2.1.

It has a -20° sport stem, which is important, as I‘m 1,92 m with long arms I played around a lot with positions, reach etc. Tried 9°, 15,° 22° and finally 30° backsweep

Goal of this build is a hybrid of a Commuter and a fitness/touring bike.

Needless to say, I love it. The inner bars are quite new, but very useful on straight roads.
