Are there any alloy handlebars out there with 31.8 clamp, wing/anatomic tops, traditional bend, and 46cm c-c width? I can't seem to find any but I figured here would be the place to ask.

Thanks!

These might be what you are looking for or at least close-ish

Soma:

Ritchey:

Edit: just re-read the OP...my suggestions might be off on a couple of fronts.

Carry on.

Bontrager Race Lite Aero (http://bontrager.com/model/11292)- hits all those and is reasonably priced.

2013 Deda Elementi RHM02 Alloy Handlebar

http://www.competitivecyclist.com/product-components/2013-deda-elementi-rhm02-alloy-handlebar-8518.219.0.html

It's incremental radius, so shallow drop and not a totally traditional bend, but closer than an Ergonova.

Random comment that won't help the OP, but will offer some sympathy:

I find handlebars to be just about the most frustrating bike item for which to shop.

The only thing that's worse (by a fair amount, when you can't find one that works) is saddles.

Soma hwy one may be your best bet. I had a set ordered but they were backordered for so long that I cancelled and kept looking.

I landed on with Salsa Cowbell 3 46cm. Now, I have them on 3 bikes because I love them so much. The flare is great. They don't have flat tops though.

i've been there. your choices are easton or zinn cyles. oh and the zinn bars do not have a wing top. for what is worth i have use the easton ec90 aero carbon bar for the last five years on two bikes. a great bar imho and a true 46 c-t-c. the zinn bars are up to 48 c-t-c.

The OP said WING TOPS . The only bar that fits the bill is the Bontrager Lite-Aero...the others suggested do not have the flat aero wing top. Lou

For the record, the Deda I referenced does have "aero" tops. But it has a "modern compact" not traditional bend.

Traditional bend would be the Rotundos.

They also released the Tornova this year, which is a mash between the Ergonova and the Rotundo. I think this might be what the OP is asking for to a T, minus the fact that the alloy ones won't be here for a while. ;)

Wow some rarely seen properly setup bars - even though not mounted on a bike, and this on the PACELINE. Sorry, it just pains my eyes so often.

the 3T are 46cm at the drops not the hoods fyi.

the Deda are 46 o-o not c-c.

I've been thinking about trying the Zinn bars and would be curious if anyone has experience on them.

What about a Zipp Vukasprint? Maybe a bit too wingy at the tops, but definitely have that traditional bend look to them.

Vuka Sprint doesn't come in aluminum AFAIK.
