Thanks for all the replies and suggestions (especially Community Bikes, I can’t wait to check them out!). I’ve got the stem, shifters (attached to the stem), and I’m donating my own crankset ... so I can replace it with an upgrade (IRD 46/30t double from Boulderbicycle.bike like the IRD Defiant but in 94mm BCD). *Still looking for **Tosco bars - 60cm wide, 25.4mm at stem (or something similar, like 55cm Tosco).*
