Slight update:
This bike is still alive. It has been unfinished for possibly 2 years now. Absolutely wild.
I did some very intense fab work to drop some weight off the bars, taper their cross section into a teardrop, and curve them carefully. I mistakenly ordered a fixed gear crankset which looked nice but doesn’t fit up with my gear. In addition, most of my group set just doesn’t mate well with the handlebars.
The verdict? I might just make it a fixed gear bike. I have better designs that will outmode it.
