Handlebars for a Windsor Hour?
Hello all,
Pardon the noob question, as I am COMPLETELY new to this.
But basically after extensive research on these forums and elsewhere, I decided to purchase my first bike: a Windsor Hour. Should be coming in later this week, hopefully. It's my first fixed gear bike and I've never really worked on bikes at all. I ordered a DVD on bicycle repair and hope to study up on it more in the future. But my basic question is this: What size handlebars can I order for the Windsor Hour? I want to order some riser handlebars but want to make sure they're the right size before ordering them. Most of the sites I've checked list 25.4mm bars, but I'm not sure if those will fit. Is this the standard size? Also, will most grips fit this size as well? Thanks so much.
Also, if you own a Windsor Hour and have risers on it, could you recommend a particular set?
