Who makes the Velo-Orange Handlebars?
Hello all, I'm pretty sure once upon a time the handlebars Velo-Orange lists as their own were made by Nitto. Is that still the case? Cheers

I don't ever remember that being the case. They come from quite a few importers nowadays, what model are you thinking about?

I would guess that if they were made by anyone who's name would improve the sales, they'd show the name. So probably some company you never heard of.
It's possible that Nitto didn't make the items branded by them, either.

I've gone from Cinelli model 66 to the Cinelli 64 as I'm not as flexible as I once was. But I put a set of Maes bars on the bike that I ride the most and those are my new favorite.

Course Handlebar
Any feedback who is making VO bars? NITTO? Dajia Cycleworks? Joe's House of Handi-bars?

Call and ask is all I can say. I like the look and design of the Nouveau Randonneur Handlebar, but want to see and measure it.
I have a VO stem (not a quill stem) and it is very well machined and super well finished. No origin country on the box, but the plastic bag inside says Taiwan.
Keep in mind, many businesses with house-branded items will not tell the manufacturer for contractual or business reasons. It is not limited to bicycles.
