That's a well sorted bike. The only thing I don't like are the stock bars. They are just so large and gangly.

Agree with that but I went for a bike fit and they told me that the bar is the right size for me. 410mm center to center. I'm still shopping around the net for a new bar but it's not that important since the size is right.

Very good. Can I ask why you decided on 165mm cranks please?

I'm short at 169cm, that's a start. Ha. On the stock 170mm, I feel that I prefer a lower cadence, about 60 plus to about 80. Read that with a slightly shorter crank length, it would improve my cadance.
Put it on, tried it on, bam, cadance increased and felt more comfortable than the 170. Well, it might due to the poor fit before I went for a proper fitting, will try a 170mm in the future after this crankset goes.
