SOMA road bars (26mm and modern curved drop)

[Yetidh9]

Hi,
Just recently I found these bars... Smart that they have the modern curved bend (not so long reach and not so much drop to the STI's). They could be a bit of a life saver for some of my lower rides as it could most likely make ot more confy to sit in the sti's.... Anyone knows where to get these in Europe?

They look like commonly available 'compact' bars that are sold by virtually any retailer these days.

However, the silver finish might be problematic, most modern bars are black.

Think you are right... But in 26mm clamping? I have not been able to find anything else than 31.6mm clamping size

I bought mine from SJS Cycles, it was the only place I could find that sold them.

There are a few other compact bars with 26mm clamps, the Bontrager SSR is probably the most widely available but might not be available in silver.

The LFGSS forum has a thread listing various compact 26mm bars.
