okay ive been researching these forums and id like to know how the tsunami bullhorn bars/tektro brake lever combination on chucksbikes.com has worked out for everyone. i see that alot of people have been buying them and im about to jump on the bandwagon, but first tell me how they worked out for you guys! maybe you can even attach some pictures of your bike with the setup for me? i appreciate it!

also, how big of a deal is the width difference between 38 cm and 42cm on the bullhorns? i'm not sure which one i want, does it matter though? thanks everyone-

I got the bars and levers from Chuck's and they're great. I had to file the end of the bars square to take the brake lever (the bar ends are cut at an angle), but that was no big deal. I like a narrow bar to squeeze into gaps in the traffic, so I chose the 38's. If you have really broad shoulders, you might want a wider bar. I like the bars so much, I ordered another set for when these wear out.
