Post by: Mattdub on December 12, 2008, 11:21 AM: Lookin' good :daumenhoch: , pull the bars back to upright or maybe get a longer stem so you can get them in the right place .

I rode a Robinson Pro at my first race in Manchester / November and thought it worked really well. A good bike.

It's sat in my garage now waiting for new powder and decals.

Enjoy!
