26.0 Compact drop bars?

I'd guess that Deda 215s are the lightest. 215g

Deda Piegas aren't too bad for cheap.

Thx...

Do you know of any light 26mm black quill stems as well?

Some weights here, but as you can see *light *is not necessarily right.

Cinelli 1A is fairly beefy at 285g for 110mm (modern remake), but I guess it was so popular with the pros for a reason.

Just bought these bar & put it on my bike...

Giant Men's Road Bar
drop 128mm ~> 130mm
reach 80mm ~> 93mm

ergos not compacts >>>>>>>>>

Quite compact imo

selling some of the older rare piegas... lovely bars.

sorry but I've had the wrong measurement on my Giant's :(

Reach is a bit to far

Has anyone got some Soma Highway 1 bars in 40cm width, 26.0 clamp? I am desperate for a pair to complete my winter bike build and SJS are out of stock...

as are the distributors... I think Spotter said something about April!

No way. Seriously? SJS were saying new stock on 14/01/14, but then it just changed to 'out of stock'.

Sorry its not that bad....

they won't have any till mid Feb, possibly March

I have some Deda Piegas, the price and weight are good and I think the reach and drop are shorter on the 38cm and 40cm versions than the wider ones. I prefer them in terms of the shape of the drops to the Bontrager Spatr I had before, they are more like the Planet-X Strada (aka the best OS bars known) in terms of shape.

need some 40cm bontys...
so long to wait.
i dont know what i was thinking when i bought 44cm

Where did you get the piegas, Tommmmmm?

Because as near as makes no difference there are no 26.0 compacts for sale in the UK at the moment to my knowledge. Somas out of stock, spatr bars discontinued...

I got them from Wiggle, no joy there?

They look like Ergo bars in the pic, but IRL they are compacts, at least the narrower ones are.

The M106 are very nice, does no one have those?

As seen here:

Yeah I was just thinking the Nittos are probably the only ones available currently. I just can't afford them.

Tommmm, the Wiggle page doesn't look promising:

I actually have a set of these under my desk at work:

I'm just trying to find something a little more 'compact' with a flat transition to the hoods, so I can send the Dedas back.

I'll be selling my 40cm Bonts next week, get in line behind Dakin if you like.

I have some Noodles spare if they would suit- 42cm
