Mash bars sold and I've been looking for an alternative. I remembered that the BLB bars are actually made by someone else - the S logo on the centre being the clear giveaway. Couldn't remember if it was Nitto (which doesn't start with S!), but then remembered where I've seen it before; Satori (are they made by Nitto too?). Satori happen to have cheap, light bars that are the same polished black, with mildly flat tops (more function than aero), and are wider than 35-36cm. Not too expensive either.
These are the bars in question: https://biurban.net/en/handlebars/2731-bullhorn-handlebar-satori-aero.html
And here's a Nitto version that have internal routing and cost way more: https://www.hubjub.co.uk/nitto-rb0-36-bullhorn-4606-p.asp
The optional internal routing means I could switch back to TT levers, should I wish. Looks a bit more silly running just one brake with TT levers though, unless I fit the left-side for 'balance'...
