I did try the whole bars flipped for the chopper look, and thought about some bullhorns, but if I had bullhorns and bar end/aero brakes I couldn't use the original grips/gripshift. Maybe it would be way closer to an O'Bree though :D
I kinda like the riding positions now - I can be out the saddle uphill, and I have three positions to go between. Stupidly tight geo when in the drops, but not painful.
Stupidly I sold the perfect saddle (a worn white Supercorsa) on here a few months ago, thinking I'd never need it.
Gripped and a test ride to town and back, really fun and way more stable at speed now.
So far new tyres, tubes, stem, seatpost, and handlebars. Swapped the old brakes and grips onto new track style drops. Using a spare saddle, but it's trimmed green, would be better if I could find all white or with blue.
Still need to replace all the cables, and look for better brake levers and calipers.
