I recommend a rear fender and skirt guard before the coattails.

corks would look way better than those plastic jobbers and aesthetically that stem is… lacking.
but honestly that cockpit slaps! I bet it’s real comfy and a pleasure to pilot so continue enjoying futzing with the small parts and don’t ride too fast to enjoy the places your mixte takes you.

You must now wear corduroy plus-fours and long argyle socks.
Nice job on this! I’ve never seen whittled cork bar ends look quite right, they still stick out too far. I like the contrasting colors you used on the ends, but I think i’d go for tan or brown MTB grips on these bar ends here.

A set of [yellow bird thread works](https://www.yellowbirdthreadworks.com/barkeepers?fbclid=PAVERFWAMpNWpleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABp6W8kx61j_lLrpsumIbLj0B5CnRmpxDk0VTY_Bm9nWPE21Qq4DAHpf0Hs5SO_aem_uZzMu9DMtgbueojQiPt7Cg) bar ends would really cap it off classy stylez.
