lovrin hope you don't mind me piggy backing of your op, but im kind of in the same boat, although I've already bought my bike. first let me say i have been reading for about a week or so and have read all the stickies and used the search function thoroughly.

i got a felt brougham from my lbs and love riding it as is. but im interested in making it more personal and what not. i want to make it a work in progress and upgrade, paint and install new parts. i have my desired pedal layout as mks sylans soma cages and some soma double leathers. i want to make this bike to fulfill my adrenaline side and want to be able to do barspins and some of the more technical tricks. i was wondering if i could get any suggestions on bars or other necessities to try and make this thing out to be what i want. thanks in advance and keep in mind my limited knowledge. also i know i wont get on this thing and own the road or all the tricks, but i have patience. thanks again.
