After tons of physio I'm just recovering from a compressed radial nerve and [i]allowed[/i] gentle rides on the mtb. I currently run answer protaper's on both my 29ers (9* sweep) but feel a more sweepy bar/hand position will alleviate the pressure on the injured area.

There doesn't seem an awful lot of choice in the UK market , fleegles or salsa bend 2 if I can get hold of them...any other reco's at all please?

Salsa ProMotos come in a 17' flavour.

I also have hand issues from a car crash years ago. I've got Salsa bend 2's, Promoto 17 degree, Mary's and Jones bars. I like the Jones the best, with Ergons on.

Thanks for the input chaps, the Mary's are too narrow and the promotos and bend 2's are really hard to get hold of...I ordered some fleegles thru on-one in 31.8 but they were out of stock despite showing in stock on the website and I'm still fighting to get a refund despite numerous promises from them and reluctant to have to change stems to 25.4 too(notice brant is away and it all goes to rat shit there) : 🙄

Bit worried the jones bars might lead on to a frame and fork purchase to accompany...this could get expensive! 😆
