>>1960575wait, he loved them because he rode the bike, or he just approves of your choice of fitment? are you restoring his old bike for him or for you?
it's cool either way, I'm just confused.
I'm in the process of doing exactly what you're doing with handlebars and stem for my Blue Bull. got some bars and an adjustable stem and a quill adapter cheap from the co-op to figure out my stack and reach. test rode until it seemed right, measured, and ordered a nice nitto technomic to match the adjustable choice. I like the bar but I ordered one a size more narrow, I think I need that but if not I'll run the one I have .
have spent a lot on everything to restomod a fairly unremarkable bike, but like you, it has sentimental value and also I had never completely stripped and rebuilt a bike (other than a bmx) before, plus I built my own wheels, which I'd never done before.
