That looks great! The trimming of the bars sounds perplexing though? The original width sounded perfect. But, I guess if you are going from drop bars or even some other Riv. bar 76cm would feel wide; it's a short adjustment period really. Something like this would be awesome!! :

Yeah, that looks like a long-bolt-with-spacers install similar to what one does on the chainstay bridge to maintain the fender line except you'll have to drill your own hole. For the spacer, you can use a cork stopper, a stack of pista valve nuts, or, if you want to be fancy, get a Planet Bike
