I'm looking for drop bars with the flat wing shape,like FSA wing but with a 26.0 clamping area. My favorite threadless stems are Nitto and the make I already own are 26.0.

Bob - I tried to find some to put on my Bontrager... could not find anything so I ended up getting Paul at Rock Lobster to make me an OS quill so I could put on some bars with flat tops.

The IRD Blackbird came in 26.0, but it might be harder to find now.

Great post as I too would like a 26.0 for the Zullo that I just bought. I don't want a flattened area (wing) as large as the IRD but like the FSA K Force wing.
How would you get thru the stem unless it has a removable face plate?

This one is the only on 1 know and never been able to find one but at ebay, I did not win the bid :p

The blackbirds are aluminum just in case.

Here is a store that has them. Dont know who they are tho. OPs... oversize only, sorry

I can’t recommend these enough... Origin 8 Pro Compact bars.

If memory serves me right I think they changed the name and the graphics once or twice. Now they are called P - fit compacts? However the bars essentially remain the same. Origin 8 Compact 26 clamp, 70mm drop, 120 reach. I am fresh out finally used my last pair last year, I need to stock up again. They are not always in stock when I need them so when I find a good deal I snag a few.

Funny, I followed your amazon link to these bars and found out I purchased a set of them in 2012 ( I had forgotten), in fact they are on my vintage Richman. :)

I assume there are zero choices in silver?

Thanks,

Glad I could help;)

My bad I totally missed the whole wing part, those were not the bars you were looking for.

You could strip the anodizing. Also Ritchey might have something in silver.

Well I ended up going another way on my newest commute/city/all rounder build. Had these mustache bars sitting around forever and thought,why not?
