I LOVE the way you did that.
I've been seriously considering the LHT myself, cause I need a good all-round bike more than I need something specialized. But, Wow... With the bullhorns and the bar-ends there, I'm a little impressed. I've never seen that before. How much do you like it?, And I like the aero-bars as well, although, I'd probably put them on mine just to relax and let my hands rest while I keep moving, I don't know how many people do the same, but I've really been curious about that.
The way you did that really makes me want to build one up myself.
Good job.

Thanks dude
I love the arrangement as it is in the pics, it really works for me. I can shift and brake simultaneously at least as easily as with the Dura-ace brifters on my roadie. And yeah, the aerobars are there just to be able to get the weight off my wrists when the old carpal tunnel pain flares up, and to deal with the occasional monster headwind.
If you're interested, those brake levers are made by Dia-compe, they're specifically designed to pull V-brakes with no need for adapters.
