I've heard a TT bike can be a bit cramped, but my rider has the opposite problem... any ideas? Attachment:

I've seen this problem before, 'Ape Hanger' clip ons angled back should work. As well as wooden blocks on the pegs. Let me know how he does. Lou

What a great photo! That's a much classier way to document their growth than the annual pencil mark on the closet door frame. Your bike looks so good with those Astralite wheels.

Good point Bill. I should use that when my neighbors give disapproving looks regarding the boys early introduction to m/c's. But at least my wife says, "Hey, it's not like they're RIDING them." That's true, but the day is coming when they'll fit on that bike and ask if they can ride it. Based on the ergos, probably when they're 10!

So did you hand him the cylinder and say, "If you can get it to run, you can ride it!"?
