Walker Racer Track Bar
What
it is:
Another
retro creation from Soma Fabrications. This one is named after Don Walker,
an Australian champion racer and good friend to Marshal ‘Major’
Taylor.
The 48cm was the size of the original bar Soma drew its inspiration from.
There is a narrow flat section and then it almost begins to curve to the
drops.
The
drops have a 7° flare. The 48cm is measured at the flared ends - center
to center. Where your thumbs would be in the drops is about 45.5 cm. There
is very little reach.
We had originally thought of calling this the 'Lawson Racer'. This was
the name of an old Torrington bar...which was named after an American
racer, but Iver Lawson and Major Taylor were arch rivals. Lawson and other
racers would often gang up on Taylor on and off the race track. That doesn't
sound like someone we want to name a product after, especially one this
awesome.n
