As for raising the bars and/or using brake hoods, why not just use bullhorns instead if I'm not worried about being aero. I did have aero levers on the bike when it was stock but I don't really like the idea of dummy hoods and I really don't like the idea of having to use a rear brake with a fixed gear either. I am looking forward to trying out bullhorns. I have a feeling that I'm really gonna luv 'em.
Because someday you are going to turn into a gusty 20mph wind and really really care about being aero.
Bullhorns are fine though. You'll probably need a shorter stem too unless you are going with flop and chops.
