Wide, Flat Bars?
 

[Closed] Wide, Flat Bars?

Hello all: same old question, but with a twist.

Since going to 130mm forks on my Anthem X, I feel I want to lower the front end back to 100mm SID levels. It currently wears a Sunline V1 Carbon 25.4 bar, with 19mm of rise, 685mm width. I fancy a flat (zero rise) bar or a similar width, but it's the 25.4mm clamp that seems to be the stumbling block. I don't really want to change my stem (Thomson 70mm) as well.

So, is there a 680mm+ width (preferably 700mm+, as I fancy some bar ends!), sub-200g flat bar, with a 25.4mm clamp? I can't find it anywhere, please help!

Salsa do a nice wide flatty .. but curiously.. only in the lengths you req. in their OS version ... maybe a 25.4 in that width flexes too much??

That's what I suspected. Oh well, looks like it's a wholesale change then.
