Need some cheap lengthy mtb bars

Rod Edwards

Building a 150mm full susser on quite a tight budget (a subject on another thread) and I need some handlebars for it. Does anyone know any good handlebars for under £30 (preferably around £20) that are around 750mm long? 700m would do but something slightly longer would be better. I'd be really grateful for any feedback

Ebay, classifieds on here/pinkbike/stw?

Spent about an hour or so searching, finding it very difficult to find any bars more than 700mm. I'm trying, if possible to not go second hand.

Lots of cheap bars on CRC.

Saw that, but it's 25.4mm diameter and I've already got an oversize stem. Thanks for the suggestion though

Get a shim? They had a few other bars I thought.

Look for Kore bars on CRC. Torsion's were £30 last time I looked. Good bars, strong and stiff with a few colour options, little heavy though.

There's usually some cheap Funn bars on CRC. I did bend some though, as did a mate of mine. I guess they're alright if you're not getting too gnarly.

Have a look at Merlin, for example: http://www.merlincycles.com/bike-shop/mtb-parts/bars-stems/handlebars-riser/raceface-respond-riser-bar.html
