I have something like that on my Rockhopper (likely the same as your HR). I stuck a short piece of housing liner in the fitting. Seems to be working well; the cable movement is noticeably smoother.

Nice Stumpjumper. Someday all those tolls will be forgotten; a nice grab.

I picked up this Grizzly today. A little rough; replacement fork and mis-matched wheels. It's going to get the Midge...

Wow, that's really nice.

And that's a great album. (New Boots and Panties, that is. Your title didn't come through in the quote.)

Nice Rockhopper. Love the color. I can't believe you got rid of that saddle, though.

Peeling a basket of Clementines? Make sure you post video. Kidding; nice picture.

Have you posted pics of the Gazelle? I'd love to see that.

I never rode it before cutting the bars, so I can't comment on the difference. That bike is really too small for me and I think that fact is to blame for my not feeling comfortable on it.

That's funny - looks like it could be the same frame as the Miyata I posted earlier (#1597). I know what you mean about the steering. Those bars were super-wide; I took about 1.5" off each end. ...

Maybe tank is too pejorative, but the frame feels pretty heavy; it was a stock 34# bike with bolt-on wheels and a hi-ten fork. But yes, it's still a nice lugged early mtb. (Miyata tubing)....

Actually, I'm pretty sure now that it's an '88. I believe the 88 and 89 both came in this color, but the rear brake and original 6 speed cassette make it an '88.

Can't say that I have. I did a couple 30 mi rides with the stock bars; just made the change to drops and took it out for a few miles yesterday. It's pretty comfy though. And easy to spot on a bike...
