Cannondale Cujo 1: Cutting handlebars

After my first experience with the Cannondale Cujo 1 bike, I noticed that the handlebars were too wide compared to my previous GT Avalanche 1.0.

The tube cutter is suitable for the diameter of the handlebars.

The width (with grips) after cutting:




It is about 730mm. I like this width more than the stock one.
