The Surly 1x1 Torsion Bar is really sweet, actually. Comes in silver and black. Not too terribly heavy and nicely swept though not enough to look "alt."

I assume you're looking for a black 25.4 bar to go with that stem? Salsa still do the Moto Ace in 25.4 - 66cm wide, various sweeps

Better find one quick though, cos they probably won't do it for long.

Really your problem isn't the width - it's just if you're sticking with that stem, you need a 25.4 bar. There's plenty of wide flat 31.8s to choose from - Ritchey even do one in silver

What I don't understand is why so many 58cm bars are still made. Why would anybody buy such a narrow bar as that? All the top brands still make them though.

I run them on my commuter.
They do me fine.
Also i can see them being used on xc race bikes.

There are pro's and con's to wide and narrow bars so its good to have the options.

Ooh they're nice. And retro looking. Might have just added to the list of bits to buy.

My old Azonic World force flat bars are 640mm :shock:
Surprisingly wide for an older bar.

Have you managed to find a source for them Jack?

Could do with a set myself.
