Well after going through the reviews….. I am not buying china bars.
Its amazing how many 5 star reviews people never even rode them. They just go on and on how they look. Obviously they don’t realize the death trap they just installed on their bike. Anyways, the true cyclist, give it one stars and all experienced catastrophe failure.

FWIW on my old bike I rode a carbon fiber seat post for 15 years without incident.

console yourself that the e-type will be much, much higher maintenance than your wife.

I used standard Jagwire 5mm brake housing. I don't think that caliper has any special needs.

I've got carbon posts and carbon bars. None of them were purchased without provenance.

Saw one for sale on line the other day. Looked pretty beat up but there was something weird about it I couldn't figure out until I read the text, He had chopped the top, but only in the front and there was no glass in it. Also, it had a small block Chevy installed but didn't look completed. It made me feel sad (a little).
Found it and it is chopped in the rear, too.

Seems like it would work if the rotor is the same diameter and position.
