Can you attach Bullhorn handle bars to this bike? If so, do you need a new brake?

The bike comes with tools to put the handle bar on and I would buy bullhorn handle bars from Retrospec and it should work fine. They would also sell a longer cable if needed.

The tires on mine are 700x28. To change to flatbar, you would have to either find a threaded/quill stem that would fit the handlebar that you want to buy. Handlebars usually run about $25 plus $10 for the grips, stem perhaps another $20. You would need new brake cables ($8), gear cables ($8), new brake levers/shifters ($40 a set). Otherwise, you would have to buy a new fork ($50-$200 depending on material), headset ($40), spacers ($5), stem (about $25), handlebar grips ($10) and handlebar ($25), plus the gear and brake cables and shifters/brakes as noted above.

The legs are attached to the bouncer frame using a bolt (hex). In my opinion, this would be a cumbersome process if done per use - regularly removing handlebar for storage and re-attaching it for each use. The process itself is not difficult, however.

Yes, you definitely have to remove the handlebars and I would recommend removing the pedals also. It is very easy to remove the pedals and would do the same for just about any case.

Mostly, but handlebars need assembly to front fork with provided hex tool. Pedals need to be screwed on pedal crank. I believe the front wheel mud fender is fastened. A tail flag.The mount to the adult seat post (to pull) was difficult--alignment of four threaded posts welded to a plate was a little off, making putting 4 nuts on hard (impossible for my bike)--but a call to customer service had them quickly sent a replacement in days/week.

I had raised this question a while ago. I ended up purchasing the same bike. It came with 32mm tires. I was successfully able to change the handle bars to a flat one (~ $40). I have had it for a year now and use it almost every day biking from home to school and back (~ 7 - 8 miles). The bike is sturdy and has handled well so far.

I think we had to use a small wrench to attach the handle bars. It was ver my simple.

these bars are the same diameter as mountain bike handlebars. Looking at your Windor Tourist online, it appears to have drop bars which usually have a larger diameter from my experience. So my guess is that your brakel levers/shifters would not necessarily tranfer well to this bar and may not be able to be tighetened enough. Just my guess though. I do love these bars though!!!

Based on the picture I got back from Google (https://www.google.com/search?q=jeff+jones+h+bars&biw=1899&bih=1072&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=uPwFVauTPIeeggTW1IL4Cg&ved=0CC4QsAQ#imgdii=_&imgrc=OejP9M8yaFxQcM%253A%3BGDmCHk00WLqOqM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.gravelbike.com%252Fwp-content%252Fuploads%252F2014%252F04%252FJones-Loop-H-Bar-cockpit.jpg%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.gravelbike.com%252F%253Fp%253D3003%3B2292%3B739) it looks like it should work. You just need about 4 - 5 inches of straight handlebar out front in order for it to attach. On my dropbar handlebar the mount just attaches on either side of the stem - and then it just hangs right off the front. Hope that helps, Tim

I fully agree with this statement. I purchased this bike for the frame, fork, seat post, stem. I have had to upgrade the crankset, handlebars, seats, tires, tubes, peddles. They are not of quality. I now have to upgrade the bottom bracket as the bearings just shattered.

Depends on the bike's frame. If you are replacing the front brake and the bike originally had a center pivot brake like the Pyramid, then yes. If the bike frame has brake posts located on each for fork tube, then no. If you are replacing the rear brake on your bike, it must have a bracket with a single hole located between the seat stay tubes.

You can raise them, but you'll need a hex wrench. But you'll need one, anyway, to attach the handlebars in the first place.

Hmm, what kind of bike and most importantly, handlebar, do you have? I have no problems at all mounting it on mine using one of the provided rubber rings. You should find images or videos about it using google.

You do need to buy brackets because the existing bike ones will not work. Bought the brackets from the same seller.

The handlebars have a little play in them. Like any other bike you can loosen the bolt and the neck and the bars will raise, but only a little... If you wanted to raise them higher, a longer goose neck could be purchased to replace the origional one. You can find these on line or ask your local bike shop to get you one.

I have a Trek Madone SSL and I still have to detached the handle bars and turn then sideways to get them in to the box. You can probably leave the aero attachments on the regular bars.

Check your bikes there seems to be two different bikes, that or similar, on Amazon.com. the one I purchased has handlebars that are closer. And did not cost as much as the other one.
