So many great ideas here! Mike--These are real cork, like what Riv used to sell? I have the Miesha's grip on my bike and love the putting the palms of my hands over the bulbus hump in the middle. Very comfy. Riv recommended a new shifter for me, but said I'd need to destroy my grips, so I'll just live with the current shifter.
Steve, Alex, masmojo, Deacon P, Patrick (I hope I didn't leave anyone out)-- Do metal fenders have the quick release (breakaway) tabs that SKS fenders have? Leah-- on my She-Devil with 38 cm tires, I have SKS fenders that *just* fit the tires (I think they are recommended for tires up to 38 cm ), installed by my favorite now-Riv owning mechanic. They look great and since I'm not a ride-in-the-rain person, they will be fine for me. The wider fenders looked too floppy, not sleek. But you know that I don't ride that bike much. I have SKS fenders on my Joe A, installed by extremely capable James from Analogue cycles. These fenders are the right size for my wider tires, full coverage and are better if I'd ride in the rain, but don't look nearly as sleek. I choose SKS because of the price and the break away tabs. I get real satisfaction when I hear something between my tires and fenders, knowing that otherwise it would be on me! I'd go with silver. Your bike will be super-awesome, not *just* awesome.
