I find 3T 4gxl bars, but, the stems appear to be as rare as hens teeth. And, while cheap is good, I can spend a little more than that.

Ritchey c260 was already on my list and appears to be a good contender.

I have a Thomson post on the bike already. I would probably go with an X4, for the 4 bolt face and increased stack height. But, they're only available in 10deg or 0. I would prefer a 6deg.

So far, it appears that Ritchey C260 is leading the way with only two votes (mine and Hapsmo).

Does anyone have any experience with 3T ARX's? That was the other on my personal list of possibilities.
