Wanted Nitto RM-3 (or similar) handlebar 580 wide 25.4 dia

[sunympholepsy]

Evening,
As per title, really. I am looking for a 580mm wide Nitto RM-3 , 25.4 dia. They seem to be sold out everywhere. I have some RM16’s and brand new Surly Corner Bars, if you’d be interested in a swap. But I am happy with a straight purchase too. Also, I won’t feel offended if someone offers up a WTB RM-2 or Specialized BB1 etc.

Cheers!

There seems to be serious issues with nitto in the uk. Southern distributors seem to have dropped them and they were their manjr uk importer.

Im assuming they have got too expensive to make viable or supply into the uk is just impractical.

I assume nitto haven't folded up?

Yes, I am not sure what is happening, few shops in UK still sell Nitto stuff, but even Blue Lug (one of the biggest stockists in Japan) seems to be short of some of the Nitto range. Nitto is definitely still going strong but perhaps they are dropping some lines in their vast catalogue to focus on the hip collabs with SimWorks, Fairweather etc?
Hmmm

Just spoke to my Nitto supplier - none in stock and no ETA on replacements. I’ll keep an eye out, but doesn’t sound like there will be any available any time soon!
