[#6895007]

In order to help my precious hands and wrists, I think I need some bars with more sweep.

I'm currently on 9deg swept back bars so need something considerable more than that. Flat or very low rise and carbon for my XC 29er image.

Can't find much. Seem to remeber Ritchey did something that might be suitable but now can't locate. Any suggestions?

Jonny, got a 750mm Salsa carbon flat bar kicking about spare at work. 11 degree bend, 31.8 clamp, and much lightness! Let me know if any good.

Ritchey do one (for a lot of money) that is similar to the On One Fleegle, which kicks forward either side of the stem, to account for the 15 degrees of backweep and the effect it has on shortening the stem.
