Mungo makes fixie happy
So, I gave the On One Mungo (Nitto Moustache copies) bars a shot and they are really nice. Got them from the guy on ebay that is selling them as dutch auctions.
Hi points:
- Classic Moustache bar shape
- Same bend and drop in every way to the Nitto's
- 26.0 bar clamp diameter
- Black
- Wide 51cm at the ends
- Tons of leverage
- Comfy
- No cable grooves (bonus, bonus, bonus)
- Got em for $40 brand new versus the sometimes $50+ price the used Nittos typically demand (see ebay)
Low points:
- Freaking wide (makes some areas a tight squeeze)
- Black, so mae be easy to scuff, but the coating seems really tough thus far.
Will they stay on the bike? On this particular frame, you betcha.
Mmmmmm, Mungo good.....Mungo very good.

I've got me some too, just about got the setup right after some fettling. Weird as hell if you've never used a moustache: still not sure if I like them, but that wide honking position is absolutely unbeatable for grinding climbs.
