Hey guys, I went with the Race Face Chesters after all. I'm liking the set I already have, and Jenson matched the best price I could find of $40.14 (and no tax as with Amazon), so I tossed in a Shimano Mtn shifter that I wanted (that was also the best price around), so I hit the free-ship minimum.
After much waffling and hand-wringing on colors, I decided to just stick with the bike's color, keep it low key, and went with basic black.
Many thanks to all for weighing in, I appreciate it........
