Bike Forums - new thorn sherpa build

I ended up being the lucky one to buy Vik's thorn sherpa frame. Here's what I've done with it:

I'm pretty happy with how it is turning out so far. I've switched out the Brooks B17 saddle for a wider B68. I'm still experimenting with different handlebars. Originally I planned to use nashbar trekking bars but they were not a good fit for me. The flats on the them are too straight and I need them angled a bit. Titec h-bars were interesting but not right either. I settled on On-One mary bars and so far they're the best angle but are too wide. The next bars on my list to try is the Bontrager Crow Bar thanks to a trade for my trekking bars from a fellow bikeforums member.

So, here's the spec list and of course some pictures:

I have one pair of ortliebs for the rear rack. I'll eventually get a front rack and another pair for the front.
