  • Wide flat bars – std fit?

    I'm trying to find resonably priced, say up to 35 notes, wide, around 620/630mm, flat bars that will fit a standard stem but will also allow bar ends to be fitted, but having much luck.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction.

    thanks,

    Rob.

    11 or 17 degree backsweep … mine are 17 and really comfy 😀

    just checked them out and they docertainly sound the bees knees.

    How do you get on with the sweep, I looking at the other ones with only 5 degrees

    I ran a set of the 5deg last winter. Loved them. Just feel like a big flat bar (which they are).

    Had a few brief shots on the 11deg, feels more like a riser, but without the rise.

    I'd highly recommend either.

    Oh yes they do a 5 degree too, hadn't noticed. I don't find the sweep a problem, I had some Eastern bars before with a 5 degree sweep and they felt, well too straight really and certainly too narrow.
