I think the SR could use that bar. My best fit is on my Motobecane with that head tube length and 61cm TT. The SR is close with 58cm TT. could use them long reach drops

So that the handlebar doesnt hit the top tube when it swings or when the bike crashes. Its called a top tube protector.

This is the sort of pumpkin pie I can sink my sqrl teef into. Sweet bike.

Totally nitpicking but a silver stem might look better.
