I just bought [url= http://www.stevensbikes.de/2013/index.php?bik_id=11&cou=US&lang=en_US ]a Stevens Vapor[/url] and its a fab bike. But I'd like some shallower drop bars. Any recommendations?

After a bike fit I've just got some Salsa ones. There are several in the range with a shallow drop and not too expensive.

i have a pair of deda rhm-02 ones.
they are pretty decent, and they were cheap too.
shallow drop, a range of widths, semi flat top.

Those Planet X bars look great. Are they flared at all too?

Alternatively [url= http://www.somafab.com/archives/product/highway-1-bar ]Soma Highway One [/url]bars come in a mega 46cm width and a lovely shiny finish.

Cowbell here too. Is it wrong that I'm thinking about getting a set for my road bike?

Brant says not flared. Can someone please make a Cowbell/Bell Lap style flared drop in silver, 31.8mm clamp please? ๐Ÿ™‚

What is the current drop because from the picture they look pretty shallow already!

ctznsmith - not measured it! Prob should. Just "feels" wrong when I use the drop, like I'm overstretching. They feel great on top and on the hoods, which is why I'm reluctant to try changing the height or stem.
