Edit: I see my post was late. The saddle is ok, but the bartape is a big no.
understood, the pic is quite old and when I got the bike back the stem and bar tape and one shifter had been replaced. Perhaps I could find a better match. Although I don’t see myself spending the money right now I had Busyman Cycles out of Australia do the leather handlebar tape for my Speedvagen, 2.5 years and going strong. Perhaps I could do something cool with him...
