Older track bars from manufacturers like Cinelli and 3ttt are also nice 'n' curvy, but the Ebay prices on these are often prohibitive for me.

From: Might as well be underwater because I make less drag than a torpedoE (no aero bars here though)
One thing I like about track bars (particularly those 600 gram chromoly Nittos) is that they don't flex. https://www.yellowjersey.org/nitto.html https://www.businesscycles.com/tbars-nitto.htm
Road drop bars can be flexy in the drops....but what do you expect from a 200 gram bar?
