Trying to find 750mm wide flat bars is proving difficult.

RF have the Atlas at 785, but I don't want to have to cut them down only to decide I want the extra width.

Does anyone know of something around 750mm wide?

Not a huge fan of the branding, but it looks to fit the bill. Cheap enough that I'd not mind cutting them too.

Toyed with a Renthal 10mm rise @ 740mm as they would be easy to sell on if I wanted to change. Not sure what a 10mm rise would feel like in real world riding though?

How is that different to buying 750mm bars... only to discover you want the extra width?

It means I've got an uncut set that I can sell on.

But why not run your 785s with the grips and controls inboard - work out exactly where you want everything and then cut to size?

I've got so black RF Atlas that I've cut down to 750mm so you will never know what your missing.
