Wanted Some bars for a ‘89 MS Racing

MSYT · Friday at 08:23

Hey guys

Finally getting round to rebuild my CR1… I just can’t remember where I put the bars for it.

I’m after something to suit the build, so 1989. Flat bars. Black ideally. 25.4mm clamp.

Something like the Tioga Mountaineer. Or maybe something from Sakae. I just want something period for the style.

What you got?

Got a black Strong bar here, for the cost of postage, if it's of any use?

I've lost track of my old karma thread and what I still have, so time to start afresh. Everything in this thread will be free to collect (from far west Cornwall) or I will post at cost.

Bars (from front to back)
Strong Japan. Black and cut to 550mm. Good amount of back sweep
Specialized, silver. Cut to 560mm, with around 5 degrees back sweep
Silver Marin cut to 525mm. Around 5 degrees of back sweep
~~Silver unbranded uncut at 560mm. 5 degree back sweep~~

Had these a while for a project but having a big clear out so no longer needed.
Would like to sell as a bundle if possible.

Thanks. The bars might be the sort of thing I’m after but I really don’t need the rest.

That’s along the right lines I think but I think they’re a little too scratched up for what I want. Thanks though.

If the stem is 1" I could take the rest if it's not too expensive - only need the stem cap and the wedge, but I like Biogrips too.

[edit] Althugh I'll double check tomorrow that the project didn't end up going in an Ahead direction.

I have a black Avenir one from, I think a 1992 Diamond Back Axis. Can send a Photo tomorrow
