Giving The Old Hybrid Some More Attention

A while back I updated the drivetrain on my old Specialized Crossroads and I haven’t really ridden it much since. I decided to take it for a spin yesterday but before I did I poked around in the attic to see what handle bars I had. Found some that were a little swept back. Can’t recall what they were originally on. I painted them black (was silver) and put them on the hybrid. I think I like them better than the stock straighter bars. Think I’ll leave them for now. After getting my new bike with drop bars which I’m liking, I’ve been thinking about putting drop bars on the hybrid but that would require new shifters & brake levers. Kind of hard to justify that cost when I just bought what’s on it now. As for the drop bars on my new bike, I never ride in the drops. Maybe this bike needs something along the line of bull horn bars and then possibly I could use the existing brake and shift levers.
