When I say wide, I mean ~780mm.

Preferably a something that doesn't look like a 5 year old has been stencilled some graphics on it (Raceface SIXC).

Oh, and 31.8...

Thomson do a nice alu 780 bar. It's labelled as DH, but the rise is only 12mm.

750 = too skinny. 800's are 35mm diameter only. Otherwise, yes...

The Answer ones look like they have been designed by someone with ADHD, my experience of CB products isn't great, do I trust them with a carbon bar?

Niner one looks spot on.

£179 😯

Wowsers! At this rate I'm going to get some SIXC and sand the graphics off!

Can I just be the first to ignore the Op and recommend a too narrow aluminium bar?

Crank Bros Iodine 11 comes close to your requirements but is a 30mm rise so maybe slightly too much?

The Fatbar is not too narrow - its 780mm (the Fatbar Lite is 740mm).

Admittedly it is the wrong material though 🙂

Looking on the CRC website and using the filters there are 7 carbon bars between 780&800mm.

All seem to have OK graphics as well and the Crank Bro's ones are only £50

Iodine bar supposed to be over flexy

Enve DH bar is 800mm but graphics are a bit lairy.

I have the Sixc on my Nic now, and in Silver/white it's relatively understated, moreso than the Enve was.

Syntace do some 780s too, very few logos on them

I was going to mention Syntace, they look lovely but again not cheap, about 180 euros on the German sites I think

Is it just me or do they seem a good bit lighter than the equivalent from SRAM and Easton?
