In the 80's, narrow road drops were popular. Cinelli Giro d'Italia bars in 38cm width would give a nice compromise between true track drops and today's 42 and greater width road bars. Enough to give you a decent hand position on top without being very wide.




Personally, I prefer traditional road drops with a 44cm width and brake hoods.
