Bars are bars afterall... they are very simple to switch around. Experimenting is a great thing indeed. I was going for the antique road racer look of the turn of the century. I was inspired by the bikes at Alternative Needs Transportation and old photos. I think it goes with the olive color of this particular pista. Besides all that it makes for a very comfortable commuter. I ride from one side of San Francisco to the other. There are many climbs and fast descents on my route. These bars make it easy. If only I could get the decals off? :mad: -dalton |

ha.. he was the MAN of triathalons in the 80s
edit: holy **** thats funny.. i looked this up after i wrote that top part http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Scott and never knew he was actually nnicknamed "the man" .. i guess its the obvious nname for someone who dominates that race so long |
Have you ever noticed that the people called "Dan the Man" are most definetely not the men.

I am building a legit track bike too.....with a full disc, etc. And a hardtail Mountainbike, and a Cyclocross. Am I addicted? I hope!

Dustin...Justin and Trevor started Old Field Cycles, so all their frames are mad expensive but worth every penny. I commissioned this frame back in May when I had money from selling some drums. You got rid of your pista right? I heard you might be in Colorado or Oregon?
