What is the correct handlebar treatment for 50's bikes? The pictures that I have seen usually seem to show some kind of slide-on grip rather than handlebar tape. But a few seem to be wrapped with something from the end of the bar to the brake lever. Were both methods used? Also, if anyone has experience with Computrainers (esp. the NES version) please contact me off-list. Thanks
