Roll 1 bike upgrade
Hi,
I bought this roll 1 bike(2012) from gumtree and it is in a great condition but i want to upgrade it.
it has a black/grey color scheme and i was wondering if it is possible to change the front fork and the handlebar but it says it is integrated

You should be able to change the fork. As far as the integrated stuff, that looks to be the bar/stem combo. That has to come off to get the fork on and off, and to service the headset. So yes, it can be done.

I think the handlebar and stem are "integrated", meaning one piece.

Oddly, it also says that the dropouts are integrated. I'm trying to even conceive of what it would mean to have non-integrated dropouts.

How much does this bike weigh? It includes a steel handle bar and stem piece. Damn
