Just curious (and a wee bit jealous - goes without saying!)...
Those Titan bars and stem are original, and my favorite part of the entire bike. Who would have said that 35.5cm bars would be more comfortable then anything I've ridden on before?
Can't recall seeing a Titan bar without the rider's names on them. A very nice touch, IMHO.
