HYM with old-style road racing z-bars...
Growing tired of the extreme width of the handlebars with the mirrors extended, 48". I order ZETA SX-3 handlebar, real aluminum ZETA armor hand guards (bent) and Z-Carbon XC Hand Guards from Wheeling Cycle Supply.
While waiting for the new ZETA parts I started wounding what the bike would look like with a set of old-style road racing z-bars...

I might have to many spare parts in the barn and way to much free time.
SOmetime when you mix and match parts you come up with a winner. Not all the time...

Not a fan of this setup but to each his own. I would like to see some pics of the ordered setup; it sounds much better.
