The cinelli coat of arms is really the all time classic, and what nitto copied.
there are some other pretty cool ones... like some of the ones with the geographic shape of countries engraved on them...
the think maes bars have pretty cool engravings too.

You guys would cry If I dared show what I did to the Engraving on one side of my Nitto Noodle Bars.
It was goregeous but I just had to make it fit into a stem for 25.4mm bars
....it shows.

So far, I have to vote for the GB / Dawes bars!
Has anyone tried to do this kind of engraving by hand? I'd love to customize my bars, but wouldn't know how to go about it....
