Mod Squad: From Hamster to Tweener on an Optima Baron |
RBR customer Jim T. sent us an image a while back of his Optima Baron sporting Bacchetta tweener bars. You might have seen that pic in our Customer Photos gallery. Jim recently wrote RBR to divulge a bit of what went into his custom modification. I have to admit that I am still in the infancy stage when it comes to my technical knowledge of recumbents and cycling, so I'm going to just spit this out and leave it to your interpretation:
So there you have it, the ingredients of a successful conversion. And what does Jim think of his Baron? "This bike is FAST!!!!"
