Thanks!  It’s been a fun project – Japanese bikes seem to be much more 
standardized than, say, the Raleigh mixte I did for the same auction last year,

Amit,

What length stem is that with the new bar?  Seriously cold here in Michigan the 
last few days, even kept me off the Moonlander the last 3 days.  Suppose to get 
up to the teens tomorrow; so I should be comfortable enough to get out for a 
ride to the beach.

Hey Amit - since (I believe) you are a big guy, you might find the Jitensha 
bar a little narrow. I had a similar MAP bar and found I preferred a bit 
more width.
Just a thought.

I've been window-shopping bars for building up my old new frame project.  I 
ran across Jitensa bars in stock at Ben's Cycle (Jitensa is out of stock).

2015-02-12 Thread BenG
Hi Amit,
I bought one of those flat-but-bent-back Nitto bars from Jitensha several 
years ago.  It's got the red Nitto heat-treat band around it, like the $65 
unavailable one on the Jitensha Studio site.
I wanted more room outside the last bends, so I made some press-fit solid 
6061 aluminum extensions, coated the press-in parts with Houshold (Hogar) 
glue that GP had recommended for attaching cork grips, and pressed them 
in.  So mine is about 1-1/2" longer on both ends than as-received.  I 
installed that bar with a Dirt Drop stem in a 1987 Schwinn Sierra frame.
After a few weeks I didn't like the wrist position, so I replaced the above 
with an early Stumpjumper riser bar/double clamp stem combo.  That's what 
stuck.
If I was you, though, I wouldn't trust somebody else's modified handlebar.  
At a minimum, I would cut off that hack's extensions and see what I had 
left.  it's pretty narrow like that, though.
Thanks for plowing through my story!  Please respond if you still want it.
Ben
