I am looking to swap the BBB ergonomic bars on my winter bike with a classic bend shallow drop bar. The very steep lower section on the ergo bars doesn't lend very well to reaching the brake levers on descents. The bar style I'm looking for is exactly like the Cinelli Vai Palm. They are on the bike at the bottom of the page in this link.

Are there any other manufacturers that still offer this style of bar? I have a 110mm stem on the bike at the moment but might move up to a 130mm stem to stretch things out a little and so I might buy a new stem to go with the bar. The price of the Cinelli bars seems a little steep. Does anyone offer an alloy bar in this style for a more affordable price? Thanks.
