Time for a change & wondered what is out there ?
Not into wood chippers or the like, so regular bars.
I'll be after a wide a pair as possible. What you all using ?/ recommend ?

PlanetX X strada here too.

not light (320g for the 44's), but a nice shape, a shallow drop, and they're £20.

I use a Salsa Cowbell in a 46, the slight flair on the drops does make for a tad more control I've found

Cheers Sefton, that's a shame though as I probably should have said I am after some 31.8mm

Not really, as its a cx bike, which is why I asked what bars people ar using on their, erm, cx bikes.

Cowbell but in narrower width, they just feel silly wide when in the drops otherwise (im 6ft4 so usually a fan of wide bars!)

I use compact drops, but the Pro PLT ones, like the planet-x but a bit lighter and a bit more expensive...
