All done and dusted with the wedding and honeymoon. Now I am looking to finish this thing… anyone know where I can get some Hillman decals from? I checked that cyclomondo guy but no luck.
I could never get comfortable on the track drops. So I ditched them with the outlook to grab some risers until I saw a pic of those Cinelli Priest bars on the Ciocc (thanks for letting me know what bars they were JLN not ZLTN!).
I had a quick search on the net and found something along the lines of the Cinelli Priest bars and was going to dish out the $80 for them next pay. I was going through my garage bike bits this morning and had totally forgot about these old bars from a ladies cruiser that I picked up from the dump about a year ago. I checked them out, they looked pretty good although pretty rusty. One trip to bunnings for some steelo’s and a sausage sandwich later. I have my new handlebars.
I had a very quick ride with them before I got rained on. It has totally changed the feel of the bike… Such a nice casual ride now!! No more trying different grips trying to get comfortable. I’m in love.
Other change from before are the pedals. Didn’t rate the cheap cages.
