I don't disagree, though on off road, steep descents, the drops on noodles
are too deep and not flared enough to keep my wrists from banging the tops,
especially when trying to grab the brakes hard.

HI,
my 62 cm Hunqapillar has 48 cm Noodles on. I have been riding with them
since I bought the bike in 2014. If you put the handlebars high enough you
will find you can ride pretty upright (depending on your stem length) and
you should be able to be comfortable in the 15 cm lower drops too. The
Hey Drew,
I've ridden:
On-One Midge. Shallow Drop, but maybe not as wide as you're looking for,
and honestly, a good first dirt drop bar, but not my favorite. Just not
enough space for the hands in the drops.
Currently riding: The Gary 2 Bar by Origin8. It's 25.4, but you could use a

Drew,
I went from jones loop bar (which were a bit too wide for me) to the Map
ahearne bars (which were not "aero" enough on long rides) to RM-03s on my
Hunq. The RM-03 need to be tilted up a bit, and best with a dirt drop stem
up high. I had the 58cm handlebars, with 80mm dirt drop stem on my
Sorry Matt, just seeing this now. Honestly - having a wider flat bar & the
option of drops is incredible, especially on the Hunq. Most of the time
with drops I ride up on the flats anyways, and now with this bar I've got
more control and more options for hand positions. My only regret is not

What if i break up my original question into 2 hopefully easier questions.
are there any dirt drops where the hood position is comfortable and you can
use the brakes and they come in 25.4/26mm clamp size?
are there any shallow regular drops that come in the 52-55cm range and have
a 25.4/26mm cl
SSL,
Can you provide more details on why it is most excellent?
Thanks,
Matt

I've got the Crust Leather bar on my Hunq and it is most excellent!
Definitely recommend it if you can get your hands on one.

Hey Drew, if you want to give the Portolas a try, I have a pair just
sitting there looking pretty but doing nothing, you're welcome to borrow
them.

When the crust leather bar becomes available again in April, I am going to try
them out. I have tried most handlebar configurations, might as well give the
widest drop bars a shot.

Ya'll think that if enough of us email SimWorks they would maybe convince
Nitto to make a version of the RM-13 with 125 drop and add a 55 width?
Seriously.

What if you ride the hoods? If they're too narrow for comfort, slide them
outbound a wee bit? Or get those hood-like knobbies and put them in the
curves?

Have you played with various combinations of your current new moustache
(albastache) bars?
- tilt either way
- bar height
- stem length
- saddle height
- saddle tilt
Any combination of these changes will shift: Wrist angle, weight ratio,
elbow bend, uprightness of position, and more. I'd recomme

i was coming up empty too. i thought i was just missing the right website.
seems like the market would appreciate an option like this, especially
since there are so many other redundant variations on drops and dirt drops.
the leather bar may be too much on the wide side for my aesthetic taste
