I was hoping for something closer to the Rotundo weight. Guess that flat top adds some weight. http://www.3tcycling.com/roadbars/tornova Technical Details Weight: 285 g (40 cm) Width: 40, 42, 44 cm Bar: 31.8 mm Material: AL 7050 Drop: 139 mm Reach: 83 mm Finish: Shot peened/ Black anodized Certification: CEN

According to the one retailer I contacted their tornovas weighed more than their Rotundos by a tiny bit and the egg shaped part didn't really line up with their palms when they had the bar positioned normally. I skipped them and got some 40cm Rotundos because I couldn't find 38s.
