Re:

Brian’s bike has something similar

I use the original 660 mm DB set of aluminium ones. Managed to get hold of a NOS set about a year ago from a shop even further North than you!

Very comfortable. Good for trails and towpaths as they're not too wide and varied hand positions if you tape the remaining areas of the bars.

Sell quite cheap 2nd hand as well.

Those are the FuManchu bars. They get a good write up as well.

Just something a bit different. Best with the grips dipped down about 15 degrees.

Leave the black one as is.

Pace on the Purple

Golden one rigid- are the gold forks any good?

Planet X have lots of Nitto handlebars for something a bit different

Leave the black one, drops or cowhorn type bars and internal geared hub on the gold, pace and purple bits on the purple people eater.

Re:

Leave the purple one as is, but retro-mod it, maybe with drop bars, Middleburn RS7, XTR 952 mechs, Paul touring cantis.... and ok yes an empty wallet but a nice bike
