I am thinking about getting a Glory FR later this summer, but I want to change a few parts;
Hayes brakes -[HTML_REMOVED] Avid Code/Juicy 7
Stock tires -[HTML_REMOVED] ???
New Grips
Possibly new post (Thompson)
New H-bar
Any suggestions?
Second How much does the stock Glory weigh, and is it reasonable to get it to 39-40lbs?
Danke
For the Handlebars I would suggest the Funn Fatboy ($80) at 282g, super strong and light, still has a 710mm width to start, so you can cut it down to whatever length you want from there. I run at 690mm, there were markers on the ends to make it easy to cut each end evenly. Funn has a nice new lock-on grip called the Combat Grip, it looks pretty good at $27.50.
I can't suggest tires, because we need to know what type of terrain your riding. Muddy, hardpack, rocky, rooty…???
