    RAAM, AFAIK the Presa is basically the carbon version of the Zero 100 bars ( which I have ), which are oval on the tops, not completely flat like the FSA wings. I like the shape, and the drops are really sweet, although the ends could be a little longer.

    Most importantly they look really good on the bike, unlike those 'ergo' yokes :)

    Thanks Murph.
    I'm a big fan of flat top bars. They are very comfortable. How do you find the oval shape? Is there much area on which to rest your palms?

    TBH it doesn't really feel like a flat top, its quite subtle, but you really notice it at first, I like it a lot, however the drops on the Zero 100 aint the stiffest, so I'm gonna give the Pro Vibe 7s a go, you're more than welcome to try the Zero 100 bars I have, if you want, I'll be changing them over tomorrow.

    Actualy scratch that, I've just found this pic :

    Which shows a far more pronounced flat top that the Zero 100, so much for Deda's info, a bit like their claimed weights :rolleyes:

    Hi Murph, I wouldn't mind a look at the 100s if that's possible.

    What I'm ultimately looking for is...

    Flat top, large area (bigger than the 3T ergonova bars, which I have)
    Short reach
    Shallow drop
    Internal cable routing
    42cm center to center
    Sexy as hell

    It's a simple request really.

    I was looking at these, but it seems ITM ain't making stuff anymore, or so I heard.

    I have an old set of ITM which are wing shaped, very comfortable.

    Well in that case the Presa definitely ticks all the boxes.

    The FSA K Wing probably does as well but the styling is not to my taste.

    The Zipp Contour SL is another option but very pricey and has a longer reach than the Deda.

    PM me your address and I'll send you on the Zero 100.
