Fucking nice!! Juts beware of those bullmoose bars. I was told personally that these aluminum sets were not safe and recalled fairly soon after release. I have two sets, one specialized and one that say ritchey mountain bikes, exact same bar though, question is will I ever use them.

Nice, you're all good then. I wish I had known this before I bought two of the alloy sets.

Apparently this bike was made for one of a group of riders who spec'd the paint job.
