I linked to one from Great Britain, but there are many, many around - especially in the US where you can get stuff even cheaper than Europe. Yes, Race Face handlebars will cost you. You don't want that.

You are constantly looking for excuses not to buy an aluminium handlebar, based on the ridiculous notion that carbon handlebars is stronger than aluminium handlebars, that the cheapest and only handlebars you can get hold of is $100 and that your $30 CF handlebars will outdo them all.

You then provide a link to a single shop where almost all the handlebars linked are RaceFace.

Seriously, if you can buy from ebay, you can buy handlebars from an online retailer that has quite a deal more choice than ten riser handlebars from RaceFace.
