Okay, the rain stopped and I had a few minutes at work so hear are the new pictures. Cut randonneur bars made into bullhorns (bull$hit-horns, as I call them). I went with a shorter stem b/c I was feeling too stretched out with the Dia Compe stem on the earlier pics. It took a little hunting, but Recycle-a-bicycle in DUMBO, Brooklyn had a 1" stem that fit the old Japanese Industrial Std. of 13/16" (20.1mm, approx.) and the detailing of the stem looked perfect with the long, pointy lugs.

I think the ultimate compliment had to be Hal at Bicycle Habitat coming down out of his perch to check it out and telling me he thought it was cool.
