About the thumbies...I've got bar ends on all mine, and never have a spot for my mirror. I've got this awesome vintage Rhode Gear that I love, but it won't fit over modern aero hoods. I need to make a card stock copy of the shape in 2d, cut it out of aluminum, and put my own bend in to fit an SCR5 or Tektro hood.

Well, that rambled quickly. Cool bike though.
