26.0 Compact drop bars?

Also just found these although I don't think they're available in the UK yet.

http://civiacycles.com/components/emerson_handlebar/

I'll try and measure my 3t Morphe over the weekend, but I've seen them in both silver and black.

I make those morphs to be about 9cm in reach with a drop of 13.5cm. The tops also swing back about 0.5cm.

does mine count as compact? or more like anatomic/ergo?

can't find the proper ID but it's written "The 3T" on it, prob 26mm clamp (I'm using IRD Satin 25,4mm)

Not really compact imo

Pulled the trigger on some bonties, used the Evans 5 off 20 voucher to get them for 20 quid. Anyone got tips for stripping the anodising?

Acetone.

Caustic soda.

Anything with lye (Sodium hydroxide). I use gel type oven cleaner, easy to cover, less mess.

oven cleaner

Are the Somas steel?

No, aluminium.

Love my Bontys.
Maybe a bit wide at 44cm but still mega awesome.

These are all the 26.0 compact bars that I've come across;

Deda 215 - Drop:142 Reach:86
Deda Newton - Drop: 135 Reach:80
Deda Piega - Drop:143 Reach:87
Bontrager SSR VR-C Drop:125 Reach: couldn't find
Soma Highway one - Drop:130 Reach: 75
Nitto M106 Neat - Drop: 128 Reach 78
Origin-8 Pro-lite compact handlebar Drop: 120 Reach: 70
Also ITM Super Italia pro 260 may be worth a look.

Updated the list.

Here's a pic of my Emerson's too for more reference. Never going to anything but compact's on any of my bikes from here on out.

Cool. I was going to ask in the Langster thread what bars you had.

anyone willing to trade some 44cm bontys for a narrower set.
40 ideally?

44cm bontys

There is conflicting information on the internet regarding the way Bontrager VR bars are measured, so hopefully you can clear it up for me.

Your bars are marked as 44? And are they 44 ctc, or oto?

And sorry, don't have any 40's, looking for some myself.

as far as i know ctc.
But ill measure up

they're 44ctc

~~I'm tempted to try those Pro LT bars from Ribble.. short reach at least, and cheap as chips.

Scratch that - Ribble only has the anatomic version. Haven't found the compact one yet.

Anyone got a 40cm Bontys?
