Anyone still make a 25.4mm bar in a decent width (700mm+)?

Getting hard to find! Shame to bin a nice stem.

Yeah, Sunline v3 are 710 or so....

I've got a set & they are pretty heavy.
I think it's a combination of them being cheap & thick walled to compensate for the lack of diameter...

For comparison, the 685 bars that were standard fit on my Stumpjumper are over 100g lighter, than the v3's. Admittedly, the V3's are about an inch longer, but that's quite a weight penalty.

I did the same as you - skinny tube bar to suit a stem, but not sure it wa a great plan.
