I knew someone would comment on that. That was the night I put it back together with the new bars, cut me some slack.

Sidenote: I'm actually resurrecting project "ugly ass bike" as a 26" wheeled cyclocross/commuter, unless I can find the proper brakes at a decent price to run 700c's (anyone got some Paul's Motolites or Avid Tri aligns laying around?) Expect to see pics by mid summer, complete with dirt drop style bars again
