According to Sparque the local bike shop they can be ordered in as a 25.4 mm bar. That said I did so one and the sweep is less than I would like.



I am a fan of Selle Anatomical saddles and have one ready to be fitted. I am not sure what you mean by seat diaper?

Oh, the bar is 25.4 mm as suspected.
Yes the Marzocchi forks are basically heavier versions of the Fox stuff that one probably closest to a 34. I got mine pre-Marzocchi so it was an SR fork and it is a fine fork but this was my dream bike so it had to be a Kashima coated fork. Plus it had to be a different fork to mount the bars I wanted otherwise I was stuck with using jenky steerer tube extenders.

There must be some reason why the comfort bars aren't available for the Nyon Display but maybe it is just in the U.S. or something odd? Who knows?

The seat diaper are those silly padded covers that people put onto sometimes a perfectly good saddle usually filled with gel or a super soft foam. I see now that the picture was not your picture so you are all good.

People did not want to accept reality, it happens but it is weird when they try to fight the facts. It is not like I was some how using the calipers wrong it is kind of hard to do I guess one could have preloaded it with 6.4mm so when you turn it on it zeroed there so it actually shows at 25.4 but that is silly and nonsensical and also the actual measurement on the caliper would give it away.
