ref, the carbon bars.....

carbon with a layup that PNW have amusingly dubbed ‘CBD’ (no, we can’t find out what this acronym means).

it's apparently Compliant Bore Design & written on the PNW website it says....

"Compliant Bore Design (CBD) refers to the unique inside shape, layup, and wall thickness of the Loam Carbon Handlebar...."

Not that hard to find 😘😆

 

WTB plug tool looks pretty good, especially the extra hand thing.

Did anyone else think PNW had released a carbon bar with an old skool style brace?

Mmmm. Gtips, dinky tools, all sorts of stuff under the thirty quid mark. This is the kind of fresh goods that will get me buying stuff I don't need.

Yep, when I first saw the photo 😀

@honourablegeorge - guessing it's not any of the WTB stuff then!

I had to go back and have another look after seeing this comment.

Am very disappointed now. I used to love a good bar brace

Pebble tool looks like the perfect multi tool. Shame I already have a Dyna plug racer and a small multi tool.

What's with the weird hotel lift music in the background?

Are you sure you're not in a hotel lift?

@darlobiker Yep absolutely sure, at 99.9% anyway. 🙂

Definitely background music on the FGF video, you need to turn it up loud to hear it properly.

P.S. Perhaps I should have mentioned i the first post that the music was in the video of Benji & Hannah? 😉
