My advice, I have dealt with this before. Don't use imitation anything. Get 18.3" annodised red B-259AAnitto risers. The perfect width and hue for 5.5 mile commutes with 3.5 miles out of town. If there is a clear boundry to the town drop your saddle 5 mil when going in, raise when coming out.
Drop your gearing to 71.2. Eat an extra 450 calories for breakfast (goji berries?) . Watch Channel 5 occasionally. Find something in your parents home, sell it on ebay (maybe a clock?) and use the proceeds at hubjub.co.uk. Parody yourself, make a poll to decide if you should by semi-skimmed or full fat. Only go brakeless on Thursdays.
