how narrow do you want them?
34ish? -
• #3
Charge Plug Racer bars are similar, as are Soma Major Taylor
They do look nice, but not very comfortable to ride. -

I am looking for set of handlebars similar to those in the picture below. Looking for something with a similar shape and width, not bothered if the stem is directly attatched.
Does anyone have a set, or know where i can get one from?
Cheers

And you only needed to post once.

yes, 34ish would be ideal.
Sorry about the double thread

just had a look and saw 38's on Hubjub, do they come any narrower, without me having to import them from some mythical land?
-

I think nitto do 36s.
But why so narrow? -
• #10
you could get some narrow ones like that from a bike jumble but they are a terribly uncomfortable design and i wouldn't trust any vintage bars unless they were pristine. soma major taylors are a great comprimise imho - i am gonna run them on this years l'eroica bike i think

36's would be ideal. Trying to create an aesthetic - and also 36 is the width of my hips (/widest point on the bike). Where can I get 36 Soma Major Taylors from?
Cheers for your help guys

+1 for the charge bars looks wise. I found them uncomfortable too but they are that shape.

i have a set of 40cm major taylors going. because of the flared shape the usable top area is actually quite narrow. i'd take £20 for them.

The charge bars have a nice shape but are not as deep as track drops

the width of the handlebar should match or close to the width of your shoulder, not hips.

I find it worrying that his hips are wider than his shoulders....
