Bikes: Iron Monkey: a junkyard steel 26" slick-tired city bike. Grey Fox: A Trek 7x00 frame, painted, with everything built, from spokes up. Jet Jaguar: A 92 Cannondale R900 frame, powder coated matte black with red and aluminum highlights.

I've always wanted to make myself custom bars, but handlebars are surprisingly weird and subtle. They have two separate diameters and are full of compound curves, not to mention fairly large-diameter tubing, making bending a distinct challenge. Does anyone know of a site that discusses how they're made?
