Looking for bars.
 
They are the drop bars the go like straight down fast, and steep. I can't seem to find them anywhere. Does anyone know were I can get them, or have any pics of them on a bike? Here's a picture of the shape from the front view.

No, not exactly, but pretty close. I used to race with a guy in San Jose who had them. Those bars in that photo are probably a custom job. Finding the originals of those types of bars would be a very costly endeavor. I think that type of bend went out of style in the early 1900's. I could be wrong on that though. The SOMA's are pretty similar and easily available.

Ok...sounds good...thanks

and the early 1900's rocked for fixed gears

anyone remember the jonny or vanilla frame that had the holes in the top-tube. It was someone that was on Bikeforums. They had those style bars on there for atleast NAHBS.

^That is the bike.

Yeah I gotta make sure I read all the responses, not just the OP.

You better be makin' the most *****in' pair of flip'n'chops, or else you're never going to touch the drops without a +45 deg stem.

DoshKel 10-03-06 08:13 PM

I would kill to have those bars, but I fear they would touch my rim with my set-up :D.

^ that is a jonny with custom jonny bars iirc

Retem 10-03-06 09:32 PM

take a look at nitto b127 or major taylors if you like that

Learn_not2burn 10-03-06 09:42 PM

Doshkel, you could tighten the locknuts on your front wheel in those drops. Somebody find a picture of the most dropped front end they can find. There is some current Elite track cyclist that uses a crazy drop, I forget his name.

DoshKel 10-03-06 10:17 PM

Yea haha. Thats a good idea... I won't even have to get off my bike during a race :D.
