Chucksbikes.com has syntace bullhorns for US$12.50, amongst other things, ndf and I are keen for a pair, is there anyone else who wants some and would like to split the shipping with us? They said around US$40 for shipping 2 pair, it shouldn’t increase too much with a few more.
Specs:
38/42cm wide, 26.0 clamp diameter

For comparison, Dean Woods have Profile stoker/airwing cowhorns for $75, Cecil Walker has them for $68.
and here is another comparison…
ShifterBikes in Melbourne has NITTO bullhorns for $67.50
Kookie Bikes also has NITTO bullhorns, 2 models - $70 and $65
no Syntace rubbish, NITTO.
Maybe Synatce for around AUD$45 is a bargain???
I’d rather have NITTO anyday.
The extra $20? You guys can decide if our time and effort is worth $20…

Nitto! YES please - can you post to Gold Coast? Should I just email you guys direct? How long till your Brisvegas office opens?
Get the Nitto bars from Dan. They’re much better than the Syntace shit.

Done.
Sorry Blakey - someone mentioned “Nitto”, then suddenly: the rain stopped, the clouds cleared, the sun came out, the frame was straight, the chain shiny - and there was only one possible course of action
Nath.
but, but, but, the syntace ones have aero cable routing !!!
You could drill a couple of holes and route the cables inside.

Or you could be a cool kid and use a 'cross lever and have no need for routing.

So I’m cool then??? Coool!!!
yeah I use a cross lever on my syntace. I was just being facetious.
Fair to say even internal routing as ‘aero’ as they are aint gonna win you the next ally cat!
love the no brake approach, works for this cat…
