Have you got a run of the mill ‘NZ standard’ mountain bike and lust after something a little more stylish? Well now’s your chance …. T. White’s Bikes has some pretty special Dutch style handlebars in stock that will transform your ride in time for summer. Add a bell and a basket … et voila!!
Check out how it is done in the video below …
It’s child’s play.

Changing to a nice old bike with moustache bars utterly changed my cycling experience forever – no going back. I can't for the life of me think why most Australasian bicycles have flat bars – a design 'improvement' on something that was never broke.
It pains me to look into most kiwi cycle shops, filled as they are with hybrid bicycles that will mostly end up stored in a garage somewhere – because they're simply uncomfortable to ride.
If you haven't tried riding a classic dutch style bike, yes – as Mike Robbo suggests, ideally with a raised stem, as well as the moustache bars, you simply won't know what you're missing.
Rise up cycle-riders, you have nothing to lose but your er.. uncomfyness.
T-whites it is tomorrow!
Awesome, I have been trying to convince my wife for years to change over to sit up and beg bars, the excellent vid might just about do the trick. I will have to stay quite for a bit.
@Chris You will have to line up behind me.
@Mark, and Richard – there's a numbering system. Mine's lower than yours… wait your turn!
Sorry guys, I got the last one this afternoon!!!
Never fear. T.White's Bikes just purchased every pair of these bars in NZ, Should have 21 turn up tomorrow!
Piccy please Richard!!
We also have these in stock and have performed quite a few of these upgrades.
Had given up hope these would ever appear in a NZ bike shop so went to a BMXstyle handlebar as the nearest I could get to a sit up and beg but they are still the wrong angle so my wrists are skewed – off to T.H.Whites tomorrow to buy a pair of these!!!
