Bikes: 1940s Fothergill, 1959 Allegro Special, 1963? Claud Butler Olympic Sprint, Lambert 'Clubman', 1974 Fuji "the Ace", 1976 Holdsworth 650b conversion rando bike, 1983 Trek 720 tourer, 1984 Counterpoint Opus II, 1993 Basso Gap, 2010 Downtube 8h, and...

Okay, I checked, and yes. The handlebar on the junker Centurion Signet in my garage is indeed 22.2 mm. It's chrome, it's narrow (like 14 1/2"), and there's some ugly rust and pitted chrome in the central section where there was no bar tape. Aside from all that, I don't think it's a good looking bar anyway. It is, in my opinion, not worth the cost of shipping it anywhere. You can find a better bar on any old junker Free Spirit, Huffy, &c.
