Any other compact drops come in a gloss / wet black finish? I like the Ritcheys, just want to know my options before I spend.

Zipp Service Course SL bars are gloss. Not all over, but on the sections that aren't covered by stem and tape.

Thomson are all gloss, but ££££££££

Good shout on the Zipps, the ergo version looks comfy.

Deda RHM01's come in gloss black, but I'm not sure if that counts as going for the cheap 'n' cheerful option here.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
