This will be a great looking bike, very much aligned with my way of thinking too! On the bars, point noted about not wanting to go flared, but I have just done my Fairlight Faran build and have got alloy Ritchey Butano bars on it - they are 42 at the hoods but flare out no more than a couple of cms, and it's a really nice feel to it, noticeable difference on the drops but not OTT. Recommended.
