Twelve quid, plus postage. I'd be clicking the "Buy it Now" button. :-)

ben's cycles stocks them in all colors expensive and you have shipping to UK, but they have them.

How dare you deceive Will ! Stand by your LBWS

What about any MTB flat bar? Loads and loads of options there. Not that much different than the Nitto bar aside from finish. Plenty that come in silver:

for example. And a fair number turn up t'Bay and other sites. It can though be hard to find perfectly flat bars like the Nittos.

I got a chopped MTB 2nd hand bar sitting around.
If you fancy Ed, you can have it for free.

thanks guys, thing is i'm selling my bike to my mate and i'm swapping out parts he wants for him and he wants sthg totally straight with no sweep. to say i want one myself as well... i'll check out ben's cycles on the bay... thanks...

Fixie Inc:

...with patented car scratchers

where do you get that fixie inc stuff? hubjub have fuck all and google doesnt throw up anything

that ahead stem is a delight

have you tried brixton cycles? I was there this morning and they had a few nitto handle bars in there. i only really noticed the moustache bars (because deep down inside, i quite like them... but not enough to replace my chop and flops) but they may have the flat bars as well. worth a try...

Can order from them direct

Price list

or maybe Mosquito carry the parts as well as bikes?

Mosquito

Quite tempted by the car scratchers.....

.....straight bars, I find uncomfortable, prefer a little

I had an e-mail exchange with Mosquito about parts.

They said they would get them in with their bike orders if requested - they don't have stock at the moment.

Not sure if that would be quicker than ordering direct.

Any current recommendations for silver flatbars? All those products on Chain Reaction are now discontinued.

Half way down the page (more nitto straight bars £22)

How about the courier steel flat bars that Fresh Tripe sell for a tenner? Aside from the Nitto bars being alloy and these being steel what's the difference?

well, it's cheaper.

they're straight bar mate, I doubt you'd notice difference betweeen each make of bar, other than the obvious alu and steel.

edinburgh bike do some for £2.50

Go find a scaffolding pole, or a broomstick. Or just a stick.

You'll definitely turn heads! Probably from side to side in a shaking motion, accompanied by a slightly bemused/disappointed expression.

buy a 2 meter section of steel/aluminium tube-probably 18/16 gauge(probably cost £10 all in), cut it down to the size you need then cut a couple of extras that are 500mm wide, file the ends, polish/lacquer them, keep one, sell the rest to forumengers for little dorrah and pay for the cost of materials and a couple of beers for you effort.

Alex are you still thinking of making some bars? I'd get some off you..

I have chopped nitto flats. Bought for a fiver off the forum, yours for a packet of hobnobs and a small jar of peanut butter. Pm if you want me to measure

yes I will be making some tachi bars (thats what they will be called) in june kuly hopefully
