Cheers for the pointers chaps. Wider bars are definitely on the cards. Tried on an old set of Azonic World Force's that I had in my parts box. They were cut down from when they were on my fixed gear so are a bit narrow but something similar height and wider would be perfect.
I've been wondering about the forks. It has an ahead set but was wondering from the look of it whether it was 1" rather than 1 1/8" as it does look quite narrow. Have nothing to compare it to as my fg is 1" threaded. Will measure this weekend and see. I would like to get a short travel fork but also like the look of straight bladed carbon forks that are a bit taller giving the front a little lift. Will see what my options are with regards to head tube.
As for tyres I had thought about some slick 1.5's but also want a bit of comfort. Do the kojacks roll pretty well? It's a bit of a shock getting off my fg and then onto this interns of speed and responsiveness!
