Anyone know where I can find bars like the ones in this picture:
http://www.fixedgeargallery.com/2004/c/dragonetti.htm
The model pictured is a 3T Chrono, another model I've seen (in pictures) is the 3T Moscow. I don't care about brand, I just want a bar with extensions that drop a good distance below the stem. I have some Syntace triathalon type bullhorns and they are good, but I want to get lower when I'm on the extensions.
I'd appreciate it if anyone could 1) Recommend some handlebar models and 2) Tell me where I could buy one.

What's that in the end of the bars? Another dimension? Freaky...

John filled the bars with loose ball bearings just for added effect.

Anyone have the model 019s? I'm thinking of picking one up as well.

I always thought those bars were just cut off drops but they left more of the curve on it instead of trying to get them flat... I didn't know they actually make them like that.

I've been trying to find a pair of syntace stratos with the deep drop. The stratos 800 with the 80 mm drop is a rare beast to find.

Peligro,
There was a Nitto 019 on the Panasonic track bike that "moron" bought on eBay. Now we know why you were so ticked that it sold so high <g>.

Can someone comment on the deep drop bullhorns? Besides the obvious reach difference, how will they affect someone new to riding track geometry?

What I want is a hand position that is halfway between a chopped and flipped bullhorn and a track drop. I've tried both and find that the bullhorns are too high and the track drops too low, especially when riding with a bag on my back. I'm hoping some dropped bullhorns will give me an in-between position that's aero enough but still ok for my back.

Sorry to drag up a thread from the dead, but I was wondering if you guiys could provide a little input.
I'm trying to find those elusive Syntace Stratos 800 bullhorns (80mm drop). These guys:

Is the 800 model the same thing as the "40degree drop" version sold here (As an option on the pull-down menu): http://www.trivillage.com/synaer0300.html
Soooooooo Sexxxxxxyyyyyyy....

I believe they are called "Chop and Flop" bars by some. I think the curves have more style than the angular bends of modern bullhorns.
