The lightest bars in the early 90s

Early 90s I think Roox were sub 130g?
Always thought a handlebar was not the place to take risks though…the fact the Roox was a uniform tube thickness around the circumference was either great engineering or … not.
 
Sub 130g with a shim, shimmed are usually heavier as they use a shim. It's why Syncros was never mega light.
Original Roox bars were sub130 with no shim. I remember the owner of the local shop showing them to my ride group as we dropped by one day - no one was buying into the excitement as we all liked our faces organized the way they were. Surprisingly couldn’t find any original Roos bars for sale when I looked a couple of days back.

One of the shims is glued on my bars.
