Nice bar
I like the bar. Seems to fit right for the casual cyclist or tourist. Width and drop are perfect. Nitto bars have always been high quality and continue to do so with this bar.

The drops and flats are great, but riding on the hoods feels uncomfortably narrow
The drops and flats are great, but riding on the hoods feels uncomfortably narrow. The craftsmanship is superior but they just don’t work for me.

Comfortable
Love this product. I think I might have to get one for my other bike. I am 237 lb and wide shoulders. This fits like a glove.

Good bar
Comfortable bar, but really narrow for a touring bar. I have Salsa cowbells on 2 of my other bikes and love them, but needed a bar that would fit in the quill stem on my vintage touring build. Good flex, super light, just really narrow

Awesome bars, research the sizing before you buy
Bought a reyonlds steel road bike from that site that bike snobs turn their nose up at. Loved the way it rides but could never quite get comfortable with the generic 42cm drops that came on it. Having used the noodle in the past in a 44 i decided to try these.They ARE narrow across the tops. Not terribly so but it should be noted. A little research told me to expect that. Perhaps a 45 would in fact be perfect, but 44 is really comfortable for me. Much more so then the stock bar. If i had to choose between the noodle and this one… i really dont know which to pick. I think the noodles perhaps closer to a racy road bike feel, and the rando a little more cozy, long hual, we’ll get there when we get there feel. Your milage may vary. In time i may try a slightly larger size, 46 or 45 if avaialable.

Narrower then I thought, but that’s my fault. Great bars.
A little narrower then I prefer.But hey, that’s not the bars fault. That’s my fault. I should have measured. I think I just prefer a bit more of a flare of a dirt drop bar.That said,They held up their side of the bargain. They are sturdy, beautiful, no issues. And I’ve gotten used to the tighter stance.I chose these for a vintage MTB build, and they have vintage diameter specs and a vintage look. So they are a solid choice if that’s what you need.I’m happy with this purchase.

Very comfortable bars, reduced wrist numbness
Vast improvement on the original drop bars that came on my Centurion Elite GT touring bicycle (purchased in 1984). Wrapped bars with Marque Pro Bike Handlebar tape (polyurethane surface with wave pattern and shock absorbing base). The combination dramatically reduced the wrist numbness that I get from longer rides, although I do still wear Moreok cycling gloves (5 mm gel pad). The bars give me several hand position options and the slight flare of the drops and the mild upsweep provide a more comfortable wrist alignment. (I also changed out the old brake levers for Shimano BL-R400s; these are nice, but I do wish I had gone for levers that had a fatter and longer base which would have fit my large hands better.)
