They need to be trimmed at a minimum. I also need a longer stem and to make some small adjustments. Overall a nice bike. Sad they won't be offering these anymore!
Great score ! I'm very happy for you. I wish I had worked for a company like that. I'm riding mine more than any other of my fixed gear bikes, and find the ride to be dreamy. It's really crazy about riser bars. First, it was popular to make them super narrow, presumably so you could easily split lanes in traffic. Now, they are ridiculously wide for no good reason that I can tell. I mean, do you really need that much leverage ? Anyway, at least you can easily cut them down, since they use lock on type grips that can be removed without destroying them.
