painted my handlebars...

AH! another detail girl!!! Your bike really does look great....in fact when I put my Ritchey's back on...today?.....our bikes could be sisters!!

or at least cousins.....

KLEEN KANTEeN....I use one of those, but I have the sports top and it drives me crazy because you can't tighten it...you try to find the tightest point and if you turn beyond that it loosens again...PLUS!!! When you pull on the spout to open it fully, the whole top pops off and ...water everywhere....grrrr

oh...and that was a useful detail about tucking yr tailbone in (on the handlbars thread...)

Cool that you put your old handlebars back on. How are the shims working out?

Kleen Kanteen tops- my DH is a minimalist so that's why we have the plain old fashioned screwtops- they close nice and tight. Not for people who like to drink while pedaling, but as for us, we enjoy stopping to rest in the shade to drink our water.

Tuck that tailbone, girl!
