Bullhorn Bars to go with my bike

I am tired of my old handlebars and I am looking for a nice small bullhorn to go with my bike (https://velospace.org/node/27795). I like the current small size of my bars now and I was wondering if it would be possible to get the same size bar but bullhorn. Thanks!

PS: My Thompson headset is oversized

Could get an adapter to fit the RB21's. They work fine.

While the 021 looks very cool,it's not a very comfortable bar.The flat is very narrow(esp. if you run a brake)and riding them on the bend gets old fast.It's really only good for riding on the horns.I'll find bars with less drop and a wider top to be more versatile.If you're looking for deep drop the 009 might be a bit better as it has a wider top.Also keep in mind that if your reach is comfortable now,with horns the stem might be a bit long.
