After some flat carbon bars for an Anthem X 29'er build.

I see OO have relatively cheap Selcof carbon bars for £21.

Got to be worth a punt at that price surely?

Presume they are simply branded Chinese catalogue items, but no issues with that.

145g and 740 wide flat bars.

IIve just done a px order. If I'd seen them earlier I might have added them to my basket

Possibly cheap because they aren't fashionably wide enough for today's market.

I have a pair on my Cannondale rigid. Well lush. Not snapped yet on me...

just taken delivery of a set.

the cabon isn't particularly uniform unternally, and a quick double check doesn't look like it's designed with more material in one place, type of thing.

however, just stuck my finger in and it's only uneaven in the end 2cm or so, so I'm not that concerned.

the centre and lever points have textured finsh, and the rest is smooth.

The 6 deg was what I was lookiing for as I intend to cut them to around 640mm, fit bar ends and stick them on my hack.

saying that, I may get another pair as my risers are 711 and I was thinking about going a little (tiny bit) wider.

I'm quite happy with them.

I forgot that. When they arrived I fitted new ESI grips but a mate surprised me with a birthday present of anodised KCNC endplugs. I had to take a file to the inside of the bars to work that ridge down.
