Hi all,

I have recently purchased a WinowTT129 frame set, admittedly without much research as I should have perhaps. The thing is that the geometry fitted me very well on paper and I liked the frame as a whole. I know that many think of the 28cc clearance as a backward development, but I personally don't mind it much. I also wanted to build a custom Chinese full built as a project. But oh my God the handlebars. It feels completely impossible to ride it, very twitchy and unstable. Turning is also very difficult and I noticed how the stem was scratching the fork, although I  managed to fix that. Anyway, i want to give it a few more tries out before starting this experiment, but given that the slack is 73.5°, which is very similar to a road bike, would you consider turning this frame into a road bike version? I know I need to get a different handlebar, new hydraulic discs and road shifters, but if it's worthwhile I'd be happy to try it out.
