Lovely. Brown leather grips, I reckon.0

I'd go with leather bar tape to match the saddle.
I think I'd also try to colour code the mudguards if possible. No idea what colour though.

Leather tape, to match the saddle. Perhaps blue mudguards to match rims?0

i thought it was nice that the mud guards blended into the tyres?
just seen the price of the Brooks leather bar tape...."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Thats, "SUB ZERO" in Top Gear speak.
Just been offered a Marin Hybrid, no idea what it is, as the Mrs just txt me.
Would be great for the 3 miles to work, or the 1.5hrs thro the Snowdonia Mts long-way back.
( Those rims reminded me of an old Barry White song lyric..." I love seeing you, in your
Baby-Blue panties..." ) The Love Walrus rules, as does your bike!0 -
