Let me start off by saying these are my items. The Tange was used on my Mercury but I swapped it out. The handlebar however is a mystery to me. I found it at a yard sale along with several other items and I spent 15 dollars on all of it. I assumed this was just some cheap but nice bar. I was going to use it on my 41 schwinn but I found something I liked better so I decided to sell it. So far it is up to $126 dollars. Have I missed something? Is this some sought after rare bar or are the bidders just pulling my chain? All the bidders have very good feedback and the current high bidder sells alot of bmx items.

the bar is a very retro and indeed collectible cruiser Bmx bar from states side. by the time bmx made it to us in the uk the bars had moved on to the shape we would expect to see. (mtb risers bars they are called now!!) and indeed the cruiser bmx style never really took off here.. ish.. cough.. mtb..


ive got a bomber frame here they would look super duper on! but i'd be to scared to ride it for fear of snapping the forks (did a few as a kid lol)


certainly not wanted for a motorcycle or clunker build lol..

prob found on something simlar to this ;);)

I think the guy is trying to get both the fork and the bar to save on shipping. I just don't want them bidding on it thinking it is something special when it may just be a cheap bar. I don't want anyone saying my listing was misleading. I think I was pretty clear stating I know nothing about the origin of the bars. Nobody has sent me any questions or anything.
