I really want the priest bars but the only place i can find them is on ebay and they end up costing close to $200 after shipping. I was also thinking of
these but they're sold out. any ideas?
i know, those bars are awesome - i've wanted a pair for a long time....2nd on the jitensa studio bars, or check out some of the nitto city bars - they have one with more of an angle - they shoot straight back from the bend but they have a nice shape and a good looking satin finish. isn't the story on those priest bars something to the effect that they were designed for pope john paul after he was given a road bike by one of the italian builders (masi? colnago?) then he sent it back asking for a more upright riding position? hense the name. true story...
