Wider flat bars

[PaulS]

I’ve got Nitto bars currently on my Hunq. They’re about 580mm wide. I’d like something closer to 700mm. Anyone got suggestions? Something that resembles the bend/angles of the current bars (see attached picture).

I looked at the Wavie bar. Maybe that’s the way to go. But just wanted to see if there were other options.

—-well, guess I can’t attach pictures from a mobile site. But the current bars look almost like the Wavie. Not too much bend.

Go to the bottom of the page and click Desktop. Then you can attach a pic on this thread, I can't picture what bar is currently on your bike.

Thanks.

The Wavie appers to be in the 30-40 degree range of sweep, give or take a little.    The Whatbar page allows you to order the bars by sweep and clicking on a bar populates that bar onto the graph.  You can choose more than one bar for comparison purposes.

SOMA Osprey might work for you. 710mm, 25.4 clamp, silver 👍

Thanks for the link.  That is useful info.  I've been thinking of changing bars but have a tough time visualizing where things are.  Good stuff.

My favorite flat bars are the Nitto Kite:

If those have too much sweep for you, I also like the Nitto Heron:

https://global.bluelug.com/nitto-b354-heron-bar-silver.html

Both are 630mm wide, maybe not wide enough, so you might consider the SimWorks Getaround bar, which is 700mm wide. I'm thinking of buying one myself:

Thank you. I’d like probably something in between 20-30 deg sweep. Soma looks nice but too much sweep. I may look at the Blue lug bars or Wavie.

If you end up having the Nitto Kite as a contender I have one unused acquired from Blue Lug. Does not look like the intended build is going to happen.

Let me know if you are interested.

You could also check out the simworks fun3 bar, 35 deg sweep and 680mm length.

I'm looking to try those when they get back in stock.

Also, check out the bar extensions made by Control Tech. I think they’re 20mm on each end so you can add 40mm to your current bar. They work great with any lock-on grip.

Sycip Designs
Sycip Designs JJJ Bar is also an option

Mtb bar, 31.8mm center dia. clamp, 660mm width, 20mm rise, 22.2mm bar diameter.

Here is a collaboration that Crust Bikes did with Nitto that may be what you are looking for https://crustbikes.com/products/nitto-x-crust/

Thanks.  Cool looking bars

Soma Dream bars are really great and a great price. Has some rise and a good amount of sweep. I imagine they’d be awesome on a Hunq.
