Hello,

It must be either 40cm or 42cm in width
Shallow drop
Short reach
Flat top for comfort
No massively expensive. Or give me alternatives anyway.

I have for sale my newish deda zero100 42cm for sale(42 outside to outside). I tried a mates road bike with a flattish top. We don't know what the bar is.

Any suggestions.

Deda Zero 100 have a flattish top, short reach and shallow drop. What don't you like about them?

Just built my road bike with some Bontragers for £25 from Pedal On ( maybe £34 retail) with a shallow drop and flat top. Seem better than I was expecting after my first ride/ gloopy pothole skirmish today.

I used to have some deda zero 100's. I don't race (only at sportives!) but found them quite flexy in the drops

I use some of these at the minute, I like em and they're cheap but they dont have flat tops.

thanks for suggestions, the ones i tried we sort of tear dropped.
Oh and they have to be tri bar compatible.

I like ritchey evocurve bars, not massively flat but they are big on the top, I've got mine with no bar tape past the bend as there's enough metal not to need it.
