Evening all

Long shot here.  Is it possible to still buy handlebars which fit the above description?

I'm trying to find something a little wider than the 550mm X lite bars which are currently fitted to my Orange Sub 3.

Ta in advance.

I might have a set of salsa bars that would suit you, if you're interested in used...

If you're really struggling then you could pick up a newer 31.8 stem for a few quid secondhand and have a load more bars to choose from.

...and no need to swap stems, 31.8mm clamp means less space for levers/shifters etc.

I deliberately switched to 25.4mm when 'CX'ifying my MTB as I wanted to go narrower (and lighter, obviously) and 25.4mm allowed me to move components further in.

Cheers 13thFM. I'd not thought about SJS. Those Ti bars look nice....

I've used the SJS alloy bar, and it has a nice short bulge but is quite stiff to ride.

The ti bars are better. I use a Titec version, from way back.
