Do bear in mind that if you're used to riding on the hood of your brake lever, those will be slightly longer.

That's fine, partly my choice for criteriums, the Nitto stem I absolutely want to use is a bit on the short side (was a one off NOS one on hubjub) so from that point of view it's ok... Don't think it looks bad.

[Edit] looking at it again, I hope once black bar tape is on, brifters will look a bit less out of proportion... Maybe I should shift them down a little

When setting-up "classic bend" bars, I put the hooks on a flat surface and set the levers so that the tip touches said flat surface.

Yours don't look far off, just a little lower perhaps.

Thanks, I heard that before I think, will try here...
