drop bar recs? shallow drop, 48ish wide

[Brent Knepper]

beseeching the collective bike nerd hive mind for a drop bar reccy 🙏

looking for:
-46-50cm wide At the Ramps Center to Center

-shallow drop aka less than 130mm (shallower than b177 noodles)

-25.4 or 26 clamp

-aluminum

-reach agnostic

-flair/sweep agnostic

-traditionalish curve to the drops, like a cute sideways U :)

-silver's nice but black can become silver

not looking for:
-narrower than 46cm at the ramps

-wider than 50cm at the ramps

-carbon

-31.8 clamp

-2000s monster cross dirt drop shapes with sharp angles, no offense I know they're super functional but my friends will make fun of me

so far I found these from sim works https://sim.works/collections/handle-bars-simworks-by-nitto/products/nitto-b132-hanafuda-grand-randonneur?variant=470028 these seeeeem closest to my quest for something like a narrower crust towel rack or a shallower noodle/RH randonneur bar

thanks in advance pals!

Brent, I believe the 460mm Nitto / Fairweather M174 checks your boxes (a noodle w/ less drop and reach: mezzi rigatoni?). Silver is out,  black is in stock at blue lug.   I have had two, and found the drop itself a little cramped, but otherwise a comfortable bar (for someone who doesn't like the deep drop of the noodle).

Hey Brent, maybe the SOMA highway ones will do ya. I really liked them after a couple of years with Noodles on my Atlantis.

Hope this helps!

thanks all! anyone know if the M174's or HWY1's are 46 at the ramps or at the drop ends? plenty of nits to be picked when it comes to bars
