Carbon drop bars similar to Crust x Nitto Shaka?
I just ordered a Wilde Rambler frame and am trying to figure out a bar for it. I have a Crust Shaka in the 540cm size on my Pinarello CX and LOVE it. I'm seeking a carbon bar with similar properties. I feel the 14 degrees of flare or so is perfect for me. *I like how the hooks feel, I like that the lever position is just slightly flared vs totally vertical or way flared out, I like that the junction from ramp to hood is totally flat.
Widths at Ends- 540mm
Widths at Ramps- 48cm (I measure 48cm, but Crust's site says 49cM)
Flare- 14°
Reach- 90mm
Drop- 135mm
I could probably go a little narrower, but definitely not wider. Narrower at the ramps with more flare would work too, as long as the bar is designed to keep levers relatively close to parallel. I do like the spaciousness of a larger drop, but I could probably get away with a shorter reach.
What do y'all like that's similar to this?
