Thanks but on the Ticino looking for something flat without too much pull-back. Going for a sporty vibe with it. For the FX3, if I were to replace the bars rather than get adapters for the Isozone dealios and bar ends, I’d want a bullhorn bar with forward-pointing ends. The widest I’ve found are around 450mm with a long taper down from the 31.8mm center that doesn’t leave much room for brakes, shifters and hands before they curve forward.

As far as debris on the road, it’s interesting that while lots of roads around me are frequently traveled by contractors and handymen who have screws and nails bouncing off their trucks, the specific streets on my commute are not and are relatively free of them. More likely a flat would come from a pothole or something someone dropped on the walk/bike trail portion of my route.

Tubes are cheap. I’d rather replace one and inspect the inside of the tire for something sharp than patch unless I was on the side of the road and stuck.
