Right. I went ahead and just did it.
BEFORE...
Next, you can see where the cable ripped out from under the bartape.
This next one taken as straight as possible, you can see the bend!!
AND NOW, my silly looking bike after a fantastic bodge-job. I had to hacksaw off with a 20 (no joke) year old saw and the right side bar tape has no end plug, i just folded up some old newspaper to hold it in!! Haha
Anyway, if your interested just thought I'd post them up!
Think it looks less fussy than with the bullhorns and the brake, but obviously I'll be changing the bar ASAP!!
