Salsa Cowchipper Handlebar width
Hi everybody,
I just got the Salsa Cowchipper handlebar in size 42 for my LHT. Anyone else have these bars?
The reason I ask is because the width at the hoods is 42 and the drops flare to a whopping 54(!!!!!).
I think I want a 44 width at the hoods, but I really dont want the drops to be any wider. Im hoping the drop width stays constant as the hood with gets wider.
-->My question would be if anyone has these bars in a 44, how wide are they at the drops?

then You want regular drop bars that dont flare the drops , I presume , some of Nitto's heat treated bars Perhaps ?
lots of versions of WTB dirt drop now, with flared drops, the Cunningham prototype was a re-bent Cinelli 64.
