Anyone recommend a compact (shallow) drop road bar that comes in 46cm wide. I like a wide road bar, only a leisure cyclist, and fancy a shallow drop (preferably not “anatomic” bend.

I know Bontrager do one, any others, OS bulge, aluminium?

FSA

I have a set of 3T ergonova on the winter bike and they’re possibly the the most comfortable road bars I’ve ever had.

FSA (Omega I think) are really nice – come in a few different flavours too.

DEDA RHM01 or RHM02 ,I have the RHM02 which are flattened/wing shaped on the top giving more support to your palms.

Personally find them very comfy and use the drops a lot more due to the shallow drop.
Quite cheap too but not the lightest at around 300gms, look pimp in the white or red versions though.

you could consider dedas 215 or newton.

I dont think many bars go up to a true 46. Word of warning on FSA – they measure width at the drops, width at the hoods is 2cm under.

Salsa cowbell is a nice wide shallow drop bar but not cheap. i think the bikemonger does them.

Dedas, cheap as well, well some are. Shallow and short.

Deda zero 100 bars are nice.

Be careful if ordering Deda’s though as they measure their bars end to end rather than centre to centre. A 42cm Deda bar is only 40cm’s centre to centre.

Yes I want C to C 46cm not outside to outside. Is Deda bulge a different size to others. Don’t want to buy a stem too.

My Deda zero 100 bars are 31.7 so fit a std stem.

Marked as I was wondering the same!

My deda zero 100’s are a nice shape but they are a bit flexy in the drops. Pretty light though.
