Hiya
After the ice and snow this winter I've decided to sort out a bad weather hack bike. I'm converting an old MTB to road use and fitting ice tyres so I have plenty of clearance and a bit of grip in slippery conditions.
I would like to reuse the existing stem and fit 25.4mm diameter drop bars with V-brake compatible aero brake levers and bar end shifters. Does anyone have any recommendations for appropriate handlebars. I know Nitto do a variety of bars in this diameter, however I'd like to look for other options as well.
Are there any obvious problems I have overlooked in this plan?
