I wouldn't worry too much, the bike and bars date from 2005...
When I looked closely at the break, the metal looks to have been starting to crack for a while and maybe I should have taken them out of the stem and checked.
Anyway I've just bought the same bar as NOS as I really like the shape and also have the same in carbon on another bike...
Oh that's a bit of a worry, I'd better look out for some Omniums or something...
Especially having just had this happen on another bike...
