38 cm at the hoods c-c
75 mm reach
120-125 mm drop
compact shape
40 cm c-c at the drops
200 g - ish weight

Any brands/models to suggest ?
I'm stuck at FSA SL-K ...

I’m using the 3T Superergo LTD. Not the stiffest bar but it ticks your boxes.

Easton ec-90 has 38cm width, but 80mm reach. My favorite bar. Reach can probably not be reduced with the exact positioning of the brake hood and bar angle.

Deda zero100, a bit heavier at 240g but specs are exactly what you need.

Sworks Shallow Carbon bar is probably the closest match

Or maybe EXS, 70R, 38CC Hoods, 40CC Drops

I have Vision Trimax 4D on my Emonda, 380mm at hoods and 410mm at drops (both c to c). 125mm drop but 80mm reach. Very light and comfortable.
Vision are technically the same company as FSA though!

I second the 3T Superergo LTD. Mine weighed in at 175g and this is weight weenies after all so that should be the most important factor .

These are actually 389m at the hoods, 78 reach according to the vision dimension chart on their website.

As someone else suggested, EXS handlebar is preeeetty close to what you want, it's just they have 70mm, rather than 75mm, reach.

My bars are 40cm at the hoods, 42cm at the drops (but your dimensions are also available), 168g and were $200 USD delivered.

No on the road experience yet (I crashed and am still recovering) but they look good, have held up on the trainer fine.

Let me know if you have any other questions

Good luck on your search!

Ritchey EvoCurve used to come in close to those specs but they don’t list 38cm on the website any more. Maybe there’s some NOS still floating around

I looked at EXS'S website.
The 38 cm option only comes for the US$350. model
