TTT Competizione Eddy Merckx 40 with single groove handlebar
Another narrow handlebar at an insanely low price!
Here is a new-in-the-wrapper TTT Competizione handlebar in 40 width (TTT measures outside to outside so this is really about 38cm). This is a deep drop handlebar.
The bar is single groove, and a darkish grey color. The color is almost like a dark titanium color, but that is subjective.
This bar is 7075 heatreated. It was a costly handlebar originally - it is 26.0 clamp diameter and super high quality.
Be sure to check the $10 shipping option at checkout. |

Lauterwasser Handlebars Steel - last one until May
Cro-molly steel. A wonderful handlebar design that went missing for years, but not its back! A split personality bar. Twiddle along riding on the upright position (the lower bart of the bar) like you are riding an old Raleigh 3sp. Then go into action mode by going forward onto the curved section. Your back flattens out and you transform into a go-fast rider quicker than Superman can find a phone booth. The clamp diameter is 25.4, with 22.2mm at the grips (for mountain bike type brake levers we'd suggest). The bar at its widest is 480mm, but the forward section of the go-fast position is pretty narrow. This bar can be flexy, so the sprinty folks might want to buy this steel version. For the non-sprinty sit down mostly folks, you might consider the alloy we offer as a seperate item. Click here to read our blog entry about these bars

Lauterwasser Handlebars - Alloy
In stock for immediate shipment. Alloy. A wonderful handlebar design that went missing for years, but not its back! A split personality bar. Twiddle along riding on the upright position (the lower bart of the bar) like you are riding an old Raleigh 3sp. Then go into action mode by going forward onto the curved section.

The clamp diameter is 25.4, with 22.2mm at the grips (for mountain bike type brake levers we'd suggest). The bar at its widest is 480mm, but the forward section of the go-fast position is pretty narrow. This bar can be flexy, so the sprinty folks might want to buy the steel version we also offer.

ITM Wide Europa Super Racing Model New Shopworn
An Interesting looking racing bar. About 43cm cc at the brakes, flares slightly to around 44cm cc at the end of the drops. The drop is fairly deep - and the ramps are rather short (and the bar is very short at the drops). So looks like more of a race bar and less of a "comfort" bar.
The clamp diameter is 25.4. The bar is shopworn but appears new. Great for a user go-fast bike or maybe a bike your fixing up to sell and you want a wide inexpensive handlebar for it.

IRD Polished Ahead stem gorgeous - great value assorted sizes!
We love these stems!
They are about half the price of Nitto, and about 90% as good looking. What is especially nice is that these stems are very light and they come in a variety of rises and lengths. So you can play around with stem rise and length without breaking the bank.
IRD originally had another version which was Octogonal in shape but those were almost too scary light. They aren't doing those anymore. This one is just a bit stouter but still extremely light which suits us just fine.
They call the finish satin, but by all reasonable standards you would call it shiny polished with a nearly clear anodize. Very good looking.
And these stems are Berthoud ahead decaleur friendly. They use a 4 bolt detachable face plate.
The stems are made for a 1 1/8" steerer ( no ahead stems come in 1" anymore) but work fine for 1" with a shim (the shim is not included).
So you can get it in 25.4 or 26.0 clamp diameter, and with 84/96 or 73/107 rise. We try to keep a good stock, but they come and go so fast! Our most popular size is 26.0 in 8 through 10 so we do our best to keep those around.

Grand Bois Randonneur Handlebar
The Grand Bois randonneur handlebar is very popular. It is especially ideal for bikes running conventional (non-ergo style) brake levers.
The ramps are nice and long, and you get a variety of hand positions. Bar diamter is 25.4, and the width is around 385mm at the ramps and around 410mm at the bottom of the drops where they flare out. The top position may be a bit narrow for some riders, but many after getting used to the positions of this bar really like it.
The length of the ramps (the part of the bar that goes forward before the brake levers) is rather long, so with Ergo levers you may be a bit too forward. But with most conventional levers they are often just right. Many folks ride either on the hoods or on the drops, but not on the ramps. With the long ramps, you can often fine tune the perfect spot at any moment for where you want your hands to be, and it feels great.
While not as universally prefered as our most popular bar, the Nitto Noodle, this bar is worthy of serious consideration for many builds. This handlebar is more expensive then others, but it is made as a "super light bar" with heat treated alloy that allows for less material and therefore lighter weight (while providing great strength).

Cinelli Old Logo NOS Handlebar mod 63 38cm
Bicycle restorers take note of this exceptional find.
We aren't supposed to have these - these should be long gone! But they aren't. We just found some old logo - yep, Cinelli coat of arms, the real deal, handlebars that are New Old Stock.
These are the model 63. They have the del Mundo inscription. But what folks don't realize is that the 63 is actually considered by some to be the ultimate Cinelli bend. It is the MEDIUM drop. It is in between the 66 and the 64. Not too deep, not too shallow. Now being 38's the width is a bit narrow. But for restoration use, or for those who like narrow bars, these are simply an amazing find. Remember, Cinelli bars are meassured center to center.
These were probably the last batch of old logo bars to find their way to the US. The factory wrapping has the new logo. But the bars are old. Now when the handlebars left the factory, they are bulk shipped and the plastic wrap does a fine job protectiong them. Not a perfect job, but a very nice job. So this is a way of saying you might find a minor imperfection here and there. But these are the minor imperfections you also found on the NOS bars you bought in 1978.

Cinelli 66-38 handlebar new logo 26.4 handpicked great quality
Very nice price!
Offered here is a new logo Cinelli 66-38 handlebar 26.4 clamp diameter from a bunch of years ago. This handlebar is new in the wrapper. The width is meassured from center to center at the drops. The drop is deep - the 66 is the deep drop model.
We notice that the quality of NOS fresh Cinelli handlebars can vary. They can be great or some have blems from typical factory storage and subsequent shipping and storage. Also, some handlebars may have drawing marks from the manufactoring, sometimes the marks are rather minimal (which is normal) or which may be very pronounced (which we see alot but which isn't so good).
What you are purchase here is a handlebar that is hand selected from our stock and which has minimal handling marks and rather minimal drawing marks. Handlebars that do not meet this standard are sold as "2 second quality" as a different product .
We've seen folks ask nearly $200 for similar bars on ebay which is silly. We have a bit of stock on these, but we need to make them go. This is a great opportunity for a restoration or for smaller folks who ride deep drop bars. We suspect you could also make bullhorns out of them. But we didn't say that.
Remember - you need a Cinelli 26.4 clamp diameter stem to take advantage of them.

CInelli 2a track stem 130mm new logo - NOS but READ!
Limit 2 per customer.
Cinelli 2a track stem 130mm new logo (for typical BSC or Italian steerer). Clamp diameter is 26.4mm, quill is 22.2mm.
Now there is an issue with these. Cinelli stems from this period more often than not had binder bolts that did not fit cleanly into the counterbore. This always freaks us out as we wonder if the bar can really be tightened right. It seems like a bunch of these are in circulation with this issue, so somehow most folks manage, but to us it isn't right.
So we're selling these at a reduced price - use at your own risk of course, or buy them for the hardware. It would be really nasty if you bought one and sold it on ebay without this disclosure, so keep the good Karma out there. But maybe you can file the bore to behave better or do something. But we're selling these at a great price.
But don't say you weren't warned! |

Cinelli 1/A hardware kit for 1980's era stem
We're always getting requests for stem hardware for Cinelli 1/A stems, and now we have some! This hardware is new, although as we understand it, these are "take-offs" from brand new unused stems. You get an expander bolt and also the binder bolt. The binder bolt is the later style (1980's varieties) that doesn't have a keyway but rather a flaring cone shape with splines. For both the binder and the expander, the little brass washer is also present. We beleive that the expander will work on earlier 1/A stems too.
What's nice is getting this hardware to replace stuff that is lost or rusty. Now if you look deep into the allen head area of the expander bolt, you may see areas where the chrome doesn't go all the way down and you see some corrosion. But the head of the expander itself will look just swell. This probably reflects the actual limitations of the factary polishing job. Only the most obsessive would ever notice this.
