Wow retro! I hear the X-Lite brand may be coming back. Still got some bits and pieces from them lying around in the shed.

All I need now is to find one with 29er wheels and I'll be away..!

Fatbar Lite's for my Butcher, for no other reason than the colour matches the stanchions. I've been house sitting in London for six weeks with no riding so I am gonna have to get out Sunday before heading to Vancouver on Thursday.

Keep looking at the fatbar lite but really wanted a black bar as I don't want to add more colour to the bike
