    When I say wide, I mean ~780mm.

    Preferably a something that doesn’t look like a 5 year old has been stencilled some graphics on it (Raceface SIXC).

    Oh, and 31.8…

    That’d be the Easton Havoc low rise carbon one like mine

    In the 10mm rise would be my call.

    I have the 740mm Fatbar Lite and its lovely

    Check of CRC reveals –

    ANSWER Pro Taper – graphics are a bit lary

    Crank Brothers Cobalt 11 – out of stock until 07/02

    Thomson do a nice alu 780 bar. It’s labelled as DH, but the rise is only 12mm.

    That’d be the Easton Havoc low rise carbon one?

    750 = too skinny. 800’s are 35mm diameter only. Otherwise, yes…

    The Answer ones look like they have been designed by someone with ADHD, my experience of CB products isn’t great, do I trust them with a carbon bar?

    Niner one looks spot on.

    £179 😯

    Wowsers! At this rate I’m going to get some SIXC and sand the graphics off!

    Can I just be the first to ignore the Op and recommend a too narrow aluminium bar?

    Crank Bros Iodine 11 comes close to your requirements but is a 30mm rise so maybe slightly too much?

    The Fatbar is not too narrow – its 780mm (the Fatbar Lite is 740mm).

    Admittedly it is the wrong material though 🙂

    Enve carbon bars

    Looking on the CRC website and using the filters there are 7 carbon bars between 780&800mm.

    All seem to have OK graphics as well and the Crank Bro’s ones are only £50

    Iodine bar supposed to be over flexy

    Enve DH bar is 800mm but graphics are a bit lairy.

    I have the Sixc on my Nic now, and in Silver/white it’s relatively understated, moreso than the Enve was.

    Syntace do some 780s too, very few logos on them

    I was going to mention Syntace, they look lovely but again not cheap, about 180 euros on the German sites I think

    Is it just me or do they seem a good bit lighter than the equivalent from SRAM and Easton?
