    I need to know if it's an ergo or a more traditional curve..or at least a gentle ergo!!! I want to dump my Ritchey Biomax 11 for a less ergo bar...
    (don't mean to hijack)
    I've been researching bars and I'd add to the list the Modolo Venus bar

    it is sort of ergo. this is what it looks like:

    I've tried it, it's a very nice handlebar actually - although on the smaller side. I was trying to attach some 'live' pictures for you but I cannot figure out how to insert a photo that is on my hard drive and not on the web somewhere...

    Have you tried moving it onto your desktop and then uploading it? Or mail it to yourself first...

    I'm trying out the Cinelli LW s...

    Ahhhh, found out a way to attach files!
    hope this works - these are a couple of bikes with the D4g handlebar in the photos. Sorry there's some clip aerobars on one of them, but you can still see the handlebars.
    Anyway, yes it's very nice - I like size 40 better than 38 so the D4g it's a bit on the small side for me, but still useable.
    My favorite from Deda is actually the synapsi bar, http://www.dedaelementi.com/It/Produ...ctIDMaster=525 , and that one is integrated and has a flat top - BUT, if you race, remember that it is UCI illegal because of the aero extension...
    Actually I was thinking of replacing one of these D4g bars with carbon - so it may end up on the TE yard sale or the free gear forum at some point...

    forgot one of the photos... top's quite comfortable for a 38 bar I think - but I can't really say because I rarely use the top, I'm either on the hoods or in the drops...
    Hope this helps.

    TxDoc- do you know the reach and drop dimensions for the D4G bars? They didn't have it listed on their site. I might be interested in yours if they're close to my eastons. I'm picking up a new stem tonight so will see how that feels, but I might need a 38 bar.

    Not on top of my head, but will check when I go home and let you know!
