580mm flat bars were to narrow for me, I'm after some maybe 640-660mm? Any recommendations?

I found Salsa's Moto Ace bar to be waaaaaay too flexy and have since swapped it for a Surly Torsion Bar.

Ok, not the lightest bar out there but very stiff and they'll never break.

666mm wide too ๐Ÿ˜ˆ

[url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=27762 ]Race Face Next XC[/url] are pretty good but might be too narrow at 610mm.

I've got them on two bikes and really like them.

Ride must have taken it out of you tonight cos they're risers....

Salsa ones sound ok, as do the Bonty's. Will investigate further. Cheers all.
