I've just switched from a Cinelli 1A to a Nitto 26mm stem, so have also changed bars (to Cinelli nerve). I don't really get on with the new bars and would much rather have a 26mm version of the 64. Anybody know if they or a similar (shallow) classic bar exist in the 26mm fit?

    FSA, Ritchey and Deda are all producing bars in a 'classic' bend - not sure in a 26mm though.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    If you think you've got problems try looking for a modern equivalent of the Cinelli 65!!! :(
    I'd rather walk than use Shimano
  • Just checked campyoldy, and their cinelli stuff is all 26.4, which I have already. Hubjub do Nitto track bars, (26mm I think) but I reckon theyre a fair bit deeper than 65's

    I'll check out those other sites for info on the bars, cheers.

    Deda 215 are available in trad shallow and deep drops and are 26mm.
  • Thanks for that. The Deda 215 classic looks to be exactly what I want. The tops start to curve in a tad sooner than the 64's but you cant have everything. The short reach and shallow drop wont do my back any harm at all, and help me reach my non-ergo levers more easily. Just found a pair for sale claiming 25.8 bulge, but I can still shim out the bar-clamp on the stem.
