Which old school bars had the least rake? Been lookin for some for awhile but all bend back further than i like, Robinson Pro's are not bad but which other bars where nice n straight?

sarcasm, wittisisms, and general bollox welcome of course but an alternative to the Robbo pro's would be nice.
cheers

Powerlite and Gt are pretty straight.

iwas expecting "ball ache" never mind, cheers Ad but GT are too raked for my liking, ive thought about powerlite, are they noticable straighter than GT, i know the newer school ones arent.

Didn't you buy some of the Supercross bars ? If not they are cool, but obviously not old school.

Daz, you need the later GT bars with the oval cross bar...

Your mates got them for sale...

jon016847 · « **Reply #22 on:** September 21, 2005, 04:37 PM »

1985 DY Bars with the knurrled stem area are a good option

Sanmarcopizza · « **Reply #23 on:** September 21, 2005, 04:50 PM »

Or for about £20 some modern JMC style bars....TNT Retros

OrgasmDonor · « **Reply #24 on:** September 21, 2005, 05:58 PM »

JMC bars are lush, but far far too rakey for me im afraid,

Thanks to all
