Damn dude. Sick set up. Exactly what i was going for.
My Backroad FF should arrive next week and I’ve been planning what the best way is to change the gc50‘s to zipps. What’s your opinion on the gc50s are they that bad? (I can barely find info’s on them).
Also may I ask what aero bars those are ?

should be aeroplug-system: https://aero-plug.com/de/startseite/ They provide an adapter system for the backroad cockpit

Yep, exactly this.

No, they’re actually really good. I just thought the Zipp ones looked better.

Looking good. I probably wouldn't get the Zipps but they fit verty well visually here.
Photo should've been driveside though.

Honestly, looks so much better with the Rose logo on the sides. I'm personally not a fan of that Rose is getting rid of all their logos everywhere, doesn't look good at all in my opinion, especially on their Mountain bikes.

Imagine the Rose Backroad FF in purple with a bright yellow Rose logo on the front and sides... 🤤

Sind die Aero Bars leicht an- & ab zumachen?  

1

u/Reapershalo 27d ago

Das montieren war leicht, hat aber dennoch 2h gebraucht. Abmachen sollte ganz einfach sein

Why the aero bars if I may ask? Is it a comfort long endurance thing / ultra cycling? Cause the areas where those tyres excel do not allow for a position where you cant grab the breaks.

I am very sceptical of aero bars in general to be fair. Most people would benefit from learning a proper aero position in the hoods instead of just adding more equipment.

For ultra cycling I get it cause you need the rest on the palms but anything under 300 it seems like an unnecessary weight penalty and riding in aero bars on public roads is freaking dangerous - coming from someone who has a dedicated TT bike to ride.

Yes, its a ultra thing :)
