I want a bike-related project. I'm thinking of wrapping the bars with white cork tape, then wrapping the ends with twine, and shellacking the whole thing, like some restorers of older bikes do (see this page from Rivendell Bikes, or the pictures on this page).
Or this guy, who mixes bike maintenance with cocktails. Not a good choice for me, but I can see where it would have its attractions:
But I'm not sold on that. The problem is that the Yellow Maserati is about where I want it, mechanically, so anything I'd do would be cosmetic... and I just did the cables in October, so re-doing the whole handlebar (like with the Velo Orange Grand Cru Course Bar) would be a bit of a waste, until the fall.
Any ideas?
