Hi folks, looking for some suggestions.
I'm looking for some narrow alloy drop handlebars with a big drop. I've seen some where the tops of the bars curve straight down when they come out the stem. They seem to be on old track bikes and are just what I'm looking for.
Pretty sure Nitto do some in chrome steel, but I'm looking for plain alloy. There are also some from System EX and Eighthinch but I'd prefer old bars over new. Others seem to be the right shape but are oversize (31.8mm) and won't suit the bike. I'm thinking it's got to be 25.4mm or 26.0mm.
These look like the right sort of shape but are way wide and £130 is a bit ott for my build: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/180775334802
Any ideas?
