Been looking at both these compact bar sets in 44cm, both look the same and are similar weight, anybody know why the omega set costs £7 more :?:

    You also need to be aware that the way FSA do their sizes on compact bars the size is taken from the bottom of the drops so they will be around 42cm across the tops.
