Also a C&Ver had mentioned how treking bars would be great for this bike. I picked up a set from Nashbar for under $20. Finally, my stash of tires included a pair of Panaracers High Road V 26X1.50 smooth tread tires.

Cleaned it up a bit more, added the bits, bags and tires, for all this yellow glory, but is this much yellow overkill? All thoughts, criticisms, cheers, and skewers welcome.
