What are the options, or default choice at the moment?
Ali or carbon, not fussed TBH, say 760mm.. not necessarily after the cheapest but do like a deal

Not cheapest by any stretch but the Niner ones look nice and come in 780mm.

Carbon - you're looking at the Niner, or the Kinesis Strut at 750mm, nothing else above 750mm is around.

I've gone down the 10mm rise route with some Raceface Sixc 35mm bars, and replaced my stem at the same time. Pretty frustrating that no one makes a wide carbon flat bar - apart from Niner, but that's close to £200.

Kingdom bikes ti bar for around 100 quid is about 760mm and about £100 cheaper than Thomson ti and 30mm longer. I have the shorter 730mm and it is fab.

for £10 I couldn't not order one TBH, especially as their doing free P&P.. it mainly to test the size before I buy a 'good' one

Rickon, Raleigh are doing a 760mm RSP flat carbon bar for £65 RRP, obviously not a Haven or the like but still an interesting option to ponder.

I've bought some of the Gravity ones too. Again haven't fitted them yet. But they were only £16 when I got them. Couldn't say no really.
