Even though I do not believe it is correct I like the white handlebar tape. It gives it a real vintage look.

Here's mine which still has the original tape but I too like the white. Beautiful bike ILB! If you take those glamor shots get a close one of the head badge for me. Mine is very worn bad enough I can't tell what it is supposed to look like. I finished mine late last fall and never got a chance for anything other than a brief test ride. Anxious to try in the spring but I don't think I will be keeping it because it is a size to small for me. I wish I had your size frame.

BTW, it had soldered cable ends, so I went ahead and soldered the new cable ends.
