Weird "drop bars
 

I can't find a picture, and I'm trying to figure out what they're called. They look like drops, except the drop keeps going and each side almost connects with each other at the bottom.

I really can't think of any other way to describe them.

i know what you're talking about, but i don't know the brand or type. i do think they're touring bars though.

Scott Drop-In bars.

those?

or the randoneer bars which are drops with flared ends

Butterfly bars? It's difficult to tell from your description. Either that or Drop-Ins.

If only these were as narrow as bullhorns...

all those hand positions pack into 40cm? They'd explode with comfortable goodness.
Ultimate fixie century bars.

I always though these were neat

THESE! Ahhh thank you!

those things are as flexy as a wet noodle.

can someone explain the purpose of these/why they are the "best bars ever"? it seems like the extended part of the scott bars would have you in too upright of a position for racing.

I have a pair and I never quite understood the point of them, so they've been hanging in my basement for years.

the low aero position is nice, but the reason i love mine is that there's a great hand position at what would normally be the end of the drop section. it just feels really nice to my hands.

I can't quite tell, but are these these same basic kind Armstrong is using in that picture?

yes. the bars in the schnee's post are the same bars that Armstong used. i think Lemond used them in the tdf, too.

yeah... I've always heard them referred to as Lemond Drop-Ins or Lemond Roubaix bars.

and a pic of Lemond's 1990 TVT w/ the scott bars, just for kicks

^ That would make a rad conversion.

SHUT UP. SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP.

I've got some of those bars in my parts bin. I keep having to fight the urge to flop and chop them.

I wonder how many sets of ourys it would take to cover them things. :D
