Snap! Those are the ones I got. The Humpert space Bugel off of the bay for peanuts. Not ideal, but I shimmed them with these.
Works pretty well, but I'm not a fan of how tight you have to tighten the face plate. No issues so far though, even with some off roading pressure. Running normal grips, but I've got a feeling they'll be hyper comfortable with some ergo grips.

I was tempted by them, but then I realised they'd make it hard to open my rack bag. If I didn't have it I'd get one.

One of Jordans bags right? Yup, it'll drive you insane, but you do get used to it a bit. I had mine made when I was using really high stem, but new set up is much lower = bag nightmares.
I'll take pics.

I've got a much bigger head tube than you but that's completely put me off none the less.

Oh no doubt. I wouldn't recommend it at all, but the bag is too awesome and I'm not ready to replace the bike yet, so live and let live.

Trigger shifters will be way better than thumbies, so much quicker/easier in use.
Good range of bars there, I think the Humpert lady town are pretty much what I've been looking for to fit on the Argos. Just want a little sweep, not mad sweep.

Top tips, what about those prototype caribou bars mark skulls has? Didn't he get them from you?
-

Would the Velo Orange Milan or Postino bars with a shim work for this?
Would look nice with that stem.

Are the Caribou bars the same as Longitude ones, Alt bars? If so, and available after market I'd love a set.
Test rode a Longitude earlier this year, found the bars very comfy, put the hands in a very natural position, and plenty of room for hanging stuff off, lights, garmin, bags......... -

Has anyone tried a 650b wheelset and guards on one of these yet?
-

Probably;y, but im not interested if it invokes a shim

Had a look at the Humpert Lady town, £15, 31.8, 16mm rise, 30° sweep, can't go wrong really.

Stuff has been ordered now.
I found out that there's apparently a problem with the PDW grips with the Cork falling off.
I've decided to go for the ergon biokork:Also got the genetic stem as it appears to be the same as the VO for less :

I am doing that very thing right now :)
Spotter/Scoble are equal stakeholders as far as inspiration/approach is concerned :)

Did you settle on bars, or just got these two bits for now?

Just bought this to replace my 56cm stainless.

I'll now have two full groupsets, wheelsets, finishing kits etc to mix and match. This guy's stuff is all faster and lighter than my 8 speed budget hard-wearing set up, I'm going to have fun playing around.
PS, anyone want a 56cm stainless frame and parts? looking for about £800 :)

I went for the humpet climber bars.
I'll be building 650b wheels as soon as I can afford it. So one one else definitely has, but without Mudguards. -

Quite possibly, if anyone find them do let me know please.

Oh no I didn't meant them I meant the Genesis ones we were talking about
All threee of the silver ones are ergotech, sjs sells them under the name humpert. I would get some of those loop style bars, but they only make them in 25.4 clamp.
