Hey illdthedj,

I actually have two pairs of the "rare dropped bullhorns" sold from the same seller.

I have one in 25.4mm and one in 31.8mm.

When I used the 25.4mm ones, they would noticeably bend when I was riding on the horns.

It is not a problem with the 31.8mm ones.

Nonetheless both are good and rather light compared to steel bars and are exactly what you are looking for if you want horns with a less aggressive drop.

HOWEVER....what I did not notice before I bought those were the ones sold by nashbar which use to sell them for $15. but the price has now risen.
From the pictures, they do not look dropped but they are. I have three friends who own a pair and love 'em.

Matter of fact, yummygoey owns a pair and perhaps, if lucky, will chime in anytime soon

[EDIT]

I ride dropped bullhorns if that wasnt clear, I love them. Allows me to get low when I need. I do prefer risers for the winter though haha
