Billie / Wavie Combo Bars

[Dan]

Starting a thread to talk about the Billie / Wavie combo handlebar we have heard about a few times in the weekly newsletters now.

I'm imagining it as an interpolation in sweep and width between the Billies (70 degrees) and Wavies (35? degrees), maybe with a touch of rise like the Billies have. So maybe a 50 degree backsweep, fairly wide.

I love the Ortho bars I currently have on my Appaloosa, but can't help but wonder what the bike would feel like with other bars...

These are going to be THE bars.

I feel like an instant sell through is pretty likely.

Or maybe that’s because they look and sound like my ideal “flat” bar.

Sounds like it might be very similar to my Albacore bar - but lighter! 50 sweep, 20’ish rise & 785 wide. Will it have a forward sweep prior to sweeping back? Sounds cool.
