Got a new OS stem so need a new handlebar as well. Currently running Ea70 so want something similar but cheaper, maybe a Truvativ Holzfeller which Merlin have for less than £25. Anybody got any ideas?

If you’re not after anything massively wide, these are mega cheap, but light, good quality and have a comfortable bend.

Good shout but wouldn’t want anything narrower than what I’ve got but would go a little wider, can always cut them down.

Picked up some Answer Pro Tapers last week for £20. Not sure what they’ve got left now, but that’s a £65 for £20!

There were other similar deals too on other brands…

On-One risers are usually dirt cheap. They’re a nice shape, 685mm wide, v stiff and the ‘titanium’ finish on the ones I had was lovely. Not the lightest but a good value cheap bar.
