Maybe I'll swap out my black Brooks on the Fuji & break in the honey - what do you think? Sorry, I've got to get a newer picture. It now has Cane Creek black rimmed wheels (without the silver reflective tape - but soon to have black reflective tape) and the aero bars have changed.
Be sure and report on the Moose Mitts. I've read about them and wondered how they would work on a road bike. I'm still having problems keeping the hands warm unless I wear heavy gloves which make shifting a little tough.

Hmmm....not sure how the honey saddle will look on this bike. The black one does match the tape, etc.
