Hi everyone,

Anyone holding? I saw them in stock at Riv two days ago and then slept on it and now OOS everywhere I look.

Thanks!
Thomas

I've read the soma oxford are extremely similar to the albatross. Perhaps they work for you?

Oh thanks for the heads up! I forget often soma makes some great bars. I'll take a look.

I see both versions of the Albatross bars for sale using DDG as the search engine. Include just B352 in the seach query and not just the name.

Here's one, to throw you bone, so to speak https://www.retro-gression.com/search?q=nitto+b352

You can confirm the geometric similarities between the albatross and soma oxford at WhatBar.com. https://whatbars.com

Depending on what you want to spend, I had a Doom Bars build me a custom set of Titanium bars that are basically mega-Albatross with a 707mm width. They also make steel and will build them to any shape you desire. I love the Albatross, but they're just a bit too narrow for me. As an aside, I've also had luck with the Crust Orthos as well as the Magic Components Moth Bars.

Ohh yea the moth bars have been on my radar and I do love the sweeping shape of those. I've got a lead on a pair of Albatross thanks to this forum. Appreciate all the additional support trying to track something down.
