I bought some of those profile bullhorns from Performance a while back. I did like the flat part, but not the 'horns' so much. I might try chopping them down a bit.

I do really like that bike, even the color is nice (I have a bareknuckle in yellow). The more you ride, and the better shape you achieve, you will probably want to shorten the steerer tube a bit and lower the bars. I found that too be true for myself. I actually switched to track drops and added a front brake. I rode brakeless for about a year or so, but I didnt like having to ride around steep hills and such, the brake is nice to have sometimes, although I dont use it much!

Great bike, hope you enjoy it.
