Hi, all.

Does anyone have a "model number" or "official designation" or whatever from Nitto on the Bullmoose bar that Rivendell first began to sell (I believe) in 2010? Around that time, there were two variants of which I am aware, a 150mm extension variant and a 200mm extension variant.

Is it literally the "145mm quill 66-or-7cm wide 150mm extension brazed moose" version of the B901R? (I put the "moose" in there because the non-moose "bull" bar also has B901R in its name.) Or does it have another designation entirely?

Yours,

"bookkeeping" really really wants to have two occurrences of the letter p... four consecutive double letter pairs instead of three would surely make it even more of a trivia night answer than I assume it already is
it's too bad that adding the second p would violate other grammatical patterns and, for all I know, the laws of physics

I have a fillet-brazed bullmoose. The Riv listing was "Handlebar - Nitto Bullmoose, dull bright FILLET BRAZED - 150mm reach, 190mm quill (B901R)". I purchased it in 2022

I believe the Nitto "Bull" is B901RAA. I guess the AA means "no moose."

I’ve somehow come to think an AA component in the name means “anodized aluminum”.

Not that I have any evidence for it.

In any case, I’m starting to think that B901R is the name I’m looking for.
