I started the exact same thread on the old STW and received some good pointers alas no history/searchable 🙁
Any good places for bargains? Need to be fairly wide, 25.4 and pure carbon (no alu bars with carbon wrap). Dont mind if its an unknown brand or even a 'Scott' etc.
Ebay and keep an eye out, not that many 25.4mm about funnily enough, thought there would have been loads...
Bought some brand new Azonic ones for £28......
your good looks unimportant to you then hora?
have a look at merlin, they're always decently priced for these.
Don't get RF ones though - I put a crack in mine within 2 months despite no crashes and only riding gay-lite.
I had monkeylites previously from ebay.ca. I put a real nasty nick in the carbon weave (with overtightened lockons) and the weave on one end was crushed from where I fell off. A lad in my LBS at the time still had them off me (for free). With hindsight I bet he sold them on.
i have some lo rise eastons, brand new, still in the packaging if you fancy them.
i would have to check the rise and width.
cmyk, yes please. I'm popping out in abit for a ride in Calderdale (dayoff) so wont check until early evening markhoracekuk@yahoo.com
will do
