On?all the bikes that I owned and raced on in the late 40s early 50s. I was constantly up dating with the "equip de jour",?The instant that something NEW was on?the market that would save weight or add speed (new?legs or Brylcream?would have helped!) on it went. I remember the change to alloy bars and stem,"they will break Johnny boy Keep the steel ones" they would say, Just like welded frames,:"They will?come apart mate"? So ONCE again Its your bloody $s Put on what YOU feel is right. Of course keep it somewhat in the period of time.?Cheers John Crump OldhairylegsBrit, Parker. Co USA
