i think they should be posted in the ebay/craig's list thread.
and you're probably just going to ride on the tops anyways...

Why did the seller wrap the bars after he took them out of the stem? *confused*

Anything you abuse is going to fail sooner or later. Especially aluminum bars. Can't bend 'em back like the steel ones. My advice, don't abuse them.

Personally I dig the Cinelli Criteriums. They are half way between track bars and road bars and because they don't say "Pista" on them can be found for $25 on ebay. Tops are a bit more useable. Stick em in a nice Cinelli stem and you are golden.
