Hey Liesl, Keven at Riv actually suggested the Boscos back when I thought I was going to buy the build kit from Riv, but for whatever reason (stupidity on my part, maybe?) they didn't make it onto my list of considerations when I had the bike built locally. They sort of remind me of the handlebars I had on my Dutch bike. Now that I think of it, that isn't necessarily a bad thing. I've just gotten so used to riding in a somewhat forward position (instead of bolt upright) that I worry the Boscos might make me too upright, if that makes any sense.
Thanks for the reminder and the link to the other thread. I've got some thinkin' to do.
