Recommend me a Rando bar please.

[Michael]

What's your favorite and why?

I think they look neat, hope they work better for me than the 44 noodle I have (feels a bit wide) and want to try one when the wallet allows.

I really like my Velo Orange rando bars. I have the 41 (they are 41 at the ends and about 38 at the hoods) and have been very happy. I switched to them from a pair of 44 Noodles. I prefer the bend of the rando and the narrow width. All that said, I have them on my 650b low trail bike. I have 44 Noodles on my Hunqapillar but will likely switch to the randos I like them so much.

It's hard to make a recommendation. We already know there's something the matter with you for not liking the Noodle. It's kind of like the old addage: "Either you like bacon, or you're wrong".

Ha ha, very funny.

 

I do love Noodles, and am looking for a narrower one now.

But I would like to try Randos for fun some time. Although I am used to flat tops, so that may throw me off with the tilted Randos.

Have to try and see one day.

I like Noodles, but being ever curious tried these Grand Bois parallel bars from Compass and wouldn't you know it, liked them better:

I initially had Soba (46 cm?) bars on my Ram and switched to 45 cm Nitto Randonneurs.  The Sobas just seemed too wide.  I really like the outward bend at the hoods because it provides a nice wide area for my entire palm to rest.  The contact point is not just between the thumb and forefinger, but much larger which spreads out the weight,  I think.  Great for longer rides.

+1. The most comfortable bars I've used.
