You can get 800mm bars. Theres a few about, think Kore do some, and Funn might also. Theres also a few other lesser known brands that do 800mm bars

I find these plenty wide. Cheap at the moment too. Which is nice.

Not sure what bars come it at 800mm, certainly not seen any from Funn wider than 760mm. Maybe the new Renthal bars will come in at 800mm? The widest I've seen being used are the Element Nickel ones, which are also zero rise and come in at a whopping 780mm wide.

I just bought some of the Spike 777s in the polished finish. Very nicely finished bar. Only 35g heavier than a EA70 and a lot wider!

Probably gonna trim them down a tiny bit as im use to sunline 737s but these matched my biancos perfectly 8)
