Ideas for my ride?

By the way... this picture has been very helpful. I guess my ape hangers really throw off my ability to "see" my bike any other way. I guess this is a dumb question, but how do you guys "shop" for different bars without having to buy a truck load of handlebars? :?

Kinda funny but it was sort of the other way around in this case. I bought the handlebars on the cheaps a long time ago(Funn brand 1" clamp nobody makes DH stuff that size anymore) and could never get them to work with any of the bikes I tried them on, usually the end of the bar would hit the top-tube. They are very wide DH bars which suit 29ers well, so as the build went that way I pulled them out again and they really worked well with the whole alt-klunker look I was going for.

Well, you're in L.A. which is close enough to drive up and beat the snot out of me, so... I'll leave it alone for now.

Yeah and I'm 6ft 270lbs! Why do you think they call me "Da Big Kahuna"
