I would really like to treat myself to some titanium handlebars to match my titanium frame,but struggling to find?
I currently use easton haven carbons
So my titanium ones need to be 711mm or preferably a bit wider but with some rise (all the titanium ones i have looked at so far have been flat)
I just wish those new thomson ones were low rise?
Can anyone help?
run a flat bar with the stem a bit higher on spacers?

You won't find them, and if you did they'd be heavy and/or weak.
Although wasn't it Ragley/On-One who made a set of welded Ti risers - sure they were £200.
Kingdom bike project had some on their website.
Thomson sell some nice ones...
Tim has some in it Sideways.
James at Black Sheep Bikes will make you any type /style or width of bar you want out of Ti.
Jones.
Does anyone know about kingdom bike projects???
They have what I want some 31.8 x 780 wide x 15mm rise on there website for £99.99 I was just about to order but there are no contact details on there website or where they are based and contact tel no???
Kingdom are a great company. I was sponsored by them a while ago.
Chris is a lovely chap and easy to deal with. Its a small team so sometimes takes a bit longer for contact but they are lovely guys and make great products.
Do you get a free hug with every bar you buy?
I think some people on STW could do with a few free hugs.
My mate has Seven ti bars - very nice and quite cheap. Do custom width/bend.
Seconded for Kingdom, purchased carbon bars from there before, spot on.
A few years ago I bought some from Van Nicholas, very nice, good service too.

Email me at jonathantraverse@hotmail.co.uk with all you info and if they can make what I require
Cheers
Anyone thoughts on kingdom??
Why do people start a thread and then ask for people to email them 😕
You've had 2 recommendations for Kingdom, seems good enough! Welded bars scares me slightly, I'd go for them on principal.

Sorry mate but this is a bike forum for advice etc
The more comments the better????? Isn't that how it goes?
Ill remember next time your asking for advice? Or are you a know it all???
You've got some decent carbon bars, can't understand why you'd want bars made from an inferior material.
Reminds me that I keep meaning to order some ti bars for my pegasus. The ones that Candodavid got from Seven look lovely

You seemed to ignore the comments you'd had. And yes, I agree it's a good place to share knowledge, hence finding if weird you asked someone to email you about something pertinent to the question asked.
I got flat 710mm with 17 deg sweep, far comfier than the carbon salsa bars I had first
Think very carefully about the stem you use with Ti bars; I had ali bars in a Ti stem and they creaked like hell because of the flexibility of the stem around the clamp point. I'd imagine Ti bars might flex quite a bit as well, but I may be talking bollix.
Ill be using a Ali stem? Anyone got any experience of this?
Thomson stem and Ti bar here and it's not creaked in over two years use.
