Need to get new bars for my new bike. My old bike had the EC90 SLX which I liked with the right reach, drop, shape and weight. I can get the new Superlogic Evocurve at the same price and they have very similar specs but its a little bit lighter and has cable groves which I think is a nice touch. Is there anything else I should look at? I will run EX90 SL stem so the SLX is a nice match of course.

3T Ergonova... Very similar, except flatter top

I like aluminum for my bars but if you are going carbon then 2013 3T Ergonova LTD Handlebar 187 gr. claimed.

Those 3T Prima 199 were ahead of their time. You can still get them on ebay.

Jenson has the Eastons on sale. Not sure what size you need. They have 38, 44, 46.

Ritchey Carbon Curve or Superlogic carbon.
I just replaced my EC90 SLX (40) with the Carbon Curve (42), and the increase in stiffness was immedately felt and dramatic in spite of being wider.
