Thanks for the mudguards link + info! Very useful
But do you think those levers will get in the way? Even with the cable under the tape?

and yeah I've taken into account the difference in reach, my current bars are these ones, which if i remember correctly when I was looking weeks ago have 10mm less reach than the sputtar bars.

So I'll be keeping the reach measurements in mind when changing bars/stems/toptubes! etc, and I think you can adjust those STI levers and their reach?
I'll have to go and look at those somas in a shop or something, see how they compare
