Bar ID

[JLN_not_ZLTN]

Anyone know what model bars the Oval Concepts are? They have a nice mix between traditional and compact.

[jaseyjase]

look like R701s

[JLN_not_ZLTN]

Thanks.

Alternatively deda do a REALLY similiar bar called the newton (shallow version) which is the same 215 (I think thats be renamed though) but in an oversive clamp dia.

[M111]

3T Rotundo is similar reach and drop to the Newton Shallow as well if you can’t find that.

Rotundo has 4mm more drop and 3mm more reach.

[jaseyjase]

clamp size might be a factor, ovals are 26.0, i think the dedas are as well. 3ts are 31.8?

[JLN_not_ZLTN]

Yeah, by the looks of things, those Oval bars are harder to get too, and I’ll need a 31.8 clamp. I’ll check out the Deda Newton’s too. The current Deda RHM bars I have are a touch too narrow and I like the shape of the Oval bars I posted.

Thanks all.

RHM is a different shape to the newton shallows. If they are too narrow go the next size up? Deda quote all their sizes outside to outside not centre to centre.
Example: If you normally ride a 40 cm c-c you’d order a ‘42cm’ deda bar.

Yeah, I like the look of the Newton’s as well, which is why I want to change. The RHM’s are fine for the time being.

[larfinboy]

Do you definitely want shallow and not anatomic Deda Newtons?
Got a brand new set of Deda Newton Anatomics.

What size RHM did you get?

Yeah, don’t want anatomic.

@larfinboy

40cm. Didn’t realise they were measured outside-to-outside at the time, and now I have them on the bike, they’re a touch too narrow.

[nikcee]

i might have some actual 42cm newtons id be happy to part with.

need to check if ive sold them already.

[a.davis12]

newton shallows are the shit. i’ve got 4.

Cool. Thanks.

All good, my Newtons are Deda 46cm anyway so 44cm for everyone else.

[JLN_not_ZLTN]

Yeah, too wide. I’ve got 40cm Nitto’s on my CX bike and like that width. Re-measured my Deda’s last night and they’re 38cm c-t-c.

[alexb618]

newtons are the shit

everyone seems to think 3t rotundos are the same because they have a round bend but they feel totally different and i hate them

also 38cm bars are awesome, ive got a spare 36 deda bar that i am going to try out on my roadie when its bar tape time. ever since i put a 34 bar on my track bike i have discovered the joy of very narrow bars

new rule = stem must be equal to or greater than 130, bar must be equal to or less than 38

[JLN_not_ZLTN]

Shit. My stem is only 100mm.
