How are you braking in the drops during those rough downhill sections?

The Sonder Bomber bars are really nicely wide and flared, placing the levers at an angle that follows the flare. This makes a very natural and comfortable braking position. Let’s be clear, I’m not talking about sending it off a huge drop, but as far as general XC challenges go this handlebar copes very and would probably be considered to be ‘Extreme Gravel’ !!

I tried some Gravelbikes and I built one from an old trekking bike...
...and sold it one week later. I just can't use their advantages.
I think they look pretty cool though but they are just not my cup of tea. And the people who ride them always seem to be in a hurry (at least the ones I know).

Sold a few bikes in the last month so I couldn't resist this frame when I saw it. I'm a sucker for that 853.

Superb! Is that how those came, with the 853 badge tinted?
