Ok, I need opinions. I have an Aero 24 and now want to add a lowracer to my stable. I want to be able to put panniers on my lowracer and tour. I need a...
What's a Baron "Lite"? chain rubbing, at least for me, was only an issue when I dropped the chain, but was solved when I put two 3" floating chaintubes on the...
I have the Raptor which as far as I can tell is a carbon Baron. I've dropped the chain and changed the bars pictured to a swivel stem with the M5 vee bar....
Can anyone comment on the seat pad on the Baron? I have read on a couple of threads that it is thin and can lead to some discomfort. Thanks! Lisa To:...
I'm a Baron fan, with little other experience. It's important to get a seat that fits! A proper seat fit stands the head up without other support. The foam...
... couple of threads that it is thin and can lead to some discomfort. ... I am still using the original pad that came with my Baron. It's a 2" open cell foam....
90 kph???!! You must be an expert on seats having "soiled" so many at those speeds. Can you recommend one for us slow pokes with fecal stain resistance not a...
... I will start by saying that I don't have a Baron yet, but I plan to get one by next spring. I have gone just over 82kph and somewhat routinely attain...
Obviously you haven't fallen at those speeds. I slid 5 meters on my butt on asphalt after falling at 55kph. The result you can see on my posted pics. On a...
... No I have not crashed at those speeds, but I have at the speed you described (55kph). In racing there are falls. Meeting the pavement at half that is no...
... Seems about right! One of my normal rides takes me down about an 8% grade. I routinely hit 52mph (~84kph) & I'm sure that I've gone faster than that. ...
My 90+plus runs are on 5 to 6% grade but over 2km and with total vehicle weight of ~120kg. I've had a near new front tyre explode minutes after a long 80kph...
And I hear that the Baron is so stable it can handle those speeds. Yes the Fujin maybe light, but the extra weight with the Baron I believe makes it a great...
And the good news about the Baron is that you'll land on your ass instead of your head. ... described (55kph). In racing there are falls. Meeting the pavement...
BTW, I found I needed a small wedge cushion under my shoulders to bring my neck more upright. If you try to get your head 'up' by having the seat fully raised,...
Bryan, you're right of course. I am now utterly terrified of speed and shall limit myself to walking speed or slower at all times. I have a few cars, including...
Lisa The Baron Xlow is the standard Baron with several super lightweight carbon fibre upgrade options - fork, boom, seat, handlebars and telescopic carbon...
The aluminium tubes on the Xlow are thinner (2mm), but heat-treated to compensate. Also, the seat angle is a little more laid back than on a regular Baron. Is...
I can't speak for newer versions, but the low point on the seat use to be 5cm lower on the X-low than on the regular Baron (27cm Vs 32cm). It's easy to...
Seats are same, just different materials as far as I know. XLow has 27cm seat height vs 32, 63cm crank axle height vs 53. Both are now made with 2mm tempered...
According to the fine folks at Bent Up Cycles (where I recently bought my Baron), the X-low is being replaced in 2009 with a lightweight (rather than lower)...
