I love the back sweep on Ragley Carnegie's but they are only 685mm wide. Is there a bar with similar back sweep but 720mm wide at least?

The normal Fleegle is a bit wider than a Fleegle pro. I love them.

On One OG is my current favourite bar.

The OG is a great bar ! felt really nice on my rigid 29er even the lowly alloy one. Really comfy position but didn't suit everything though as I switched them for an Answer DH bar for trail center stuff .

Rocketdog if you'd consider slightly under Salsa bend bars are about 710 wide I think

OG is 685mm, but feels wider than a flat 685 cos of the back sweep. IME.

I've got a new Caribou on the way, will be swapping the bars out if anyone wants to buy em?

Was also thinking of the black on-one carbon fork. Anyone any idea how the on-one Orange decals match the genesis ftame? You reckon the black fork will look alright?

How wide are they?

All the decals on the O-O fork are on the inside so not really that noticeable, especially with a layer of mud

I picked up some 3T carbon flats with 12° back sweep in the CRC sale before Christmas. Think they are 740 wide
