    Hi all,
    After a set of 710mm x 31.8 flat bars in white or black for a 29r build (trying to keep the front end lowish).
    Anyone any ideas, need to be alu and not carbon really – never liked the idea of carbon bars failing, nothing DH (really not needed)

    I like the Niner flat bars but at £100 and carbon, a bit too expensive. 😆
    Anyone recommend anything or….what flat bars do you run on a 29er ?
    Thanks

    The on-one Fleegle would be a great idea. the swept back design is really comfortable.

    http://on-one.co.uk/i/q/HBOOFPB/on-one-fleegle-pro-handlebar
    The pro is 660mm width
    and the old one is 716.7mm width

    i like salsa pro motos. i use the 17° and it’s a nice shape. they also do more normal sweeps.

    Just bought a Fleegle Pro – Garden test confirms the comfortable hand position and it does (slightly) lower the front end.

    I was planning on going 685mm wide but these seem just right 🙂

    I have Nukeproof 760’s cut down to 740mm on all 3 of my 29ers.

    Risers on the FS & HT and a flat bar on the SS. Great bars, pretty light, reasonable cost and look nice. What’s not to like?
