head stem and bars

Ok, so…

Now that I have money (after blowing all my pay on a new set of wheels) I’ve decided to buy a new head stem and bars.

I’ll be needing a threadless head stem of about 110mm and 1 1/8inch and decided that a set of bull horn bars will do the trick.

I’m not quite sure of what brands should be taken into concideration and which should steared clear of.

Later in the week I’ll be makeing a trip to the bike shops in my area, but thought I’d get some ideas of whats out there first, before they try and convince me into something I’m not really after.

It would be much appreciated if you guys could throw me your opinions/thoughts/comments on this.

The only decent looking horns - NITTO RB-021

Deda make some nice 1 1/8 Stems.

Syntace make some good horns too, the stratos:

Stems: thomson, easton

I’ve seen some reasonably nice Cinelli ones too. Basically any bullhorns that have a slight drop from the stem look nice (eg Nitto RB021’s) to me.

Thanks for the help guys.

I’m still not sure of which one I’ll end up chosing, but at least I’ve got a rough idea of some brands and models to look into.

Cheers
