Specialized do a 65mm but struggling to see any others in stock.
Any suggestions and experience please.
It is for a gravel bike and I'd like it flared. Current bars are 440 wide, and current reach of 80mm
These are 70mm reach and flared.

Did you want alloy or carbon?
These are what I run on my gravel bike

Or these specialized are flared

Seems there are quite a few out there in the 65-75mm range
Ritchey Beacons, 65mm reach. Nice flare, wing top with slight back sweep. Love 'em
Good topic. I put a 60mm Cinelli Ant stem on my gravel bike if that’s useful info.
Cheers all, a few there to look over.
Probably alloy for budgetry reasons.
Pro Discover are a good shape with flare options between 12 and 25 deg. I've got the 25 deg version, I like them. 65mm reach.
Another vote for the Corralitos.

Got 46cm ones on my gravel bike, getting a 52cm pair for my Cotic Cascade when it comes in.
I bought bars 44cm wide with a flare on the drops which is 54cm wide. I needed the 44cm over the 42cm bars that they replaced but the extra flared drop width becomes a problem fitting through tapered bike gates on cycle routes.
I reduced the reach on the same bike by buying a shorter stem. The shorter stem helped shift my position and weight over the rear wheel on descents.
