Narrow deep drop handlebars
Moderator: robbosmans
I'm currently riding 36cm bars and i love them. The only issue I have is that the drop is not very much at 125mm. Are there any 36cm handlebars with a deep drop? (around 140mm or more)
I know there are some track bars that are but I'm also using a -17 degree 140mm stem so the stem clamp size would be an issue.
Thinking of getting custom bars done if there are none available.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

Sounds like the Salsa might be the trick at 140mm of drop..... if you can find it.

I think Zipp makes a 36, but I'm pretty sure it's compact. At that size, most bars are designed for small riders or children, who don't really need a lot of drop.
Also, I'm pretty sure FSA measures C-C, so you may want to double check your bars.
Lastly, most track bars are not well designed for shifters.

You’re right! The bars are actually marked as 36cm. I’m thinking of deda bars.topflightpro wrote: ↑Wed Jan 10, 2018 2:28 pm

Unfortunately these are anatomic bars and I couldn’t stand the look of them on my bikeprebsy wrote: http://www.petitebikefit.com/resources- ... andlebars/

Used to love Cinelli 66 handlebars back in the day when I could tolerate that much drop.
It measures c-c but in the drops and they usually add a bit of an angle to them resulting in 36 c-c hood position. At least that was the case with my FSA omega 40cm bar. Measured 38cm at the hoods.topflightpro wrote: ↑Wed Jan 10, 2018 2:28 pmAlso, I'm pretty sure FSA measures C-C, so you may want to double check your bars.
