Renthal bars info anyone ?

H gang,
I won a set of Renthals from ebay a couple of weeks ago and have just started polishing the clamp marks and dings out of them. Does anyone know what the original finish was on them ? Was it polished or a duller brushed look ?
Plus does anyone know the sticker size or should I just get a sticker from a set of motorbike bars ?
Cheers all.............Adam

More than likely the original finish was polished the annodised clear like the seatposts.

Original finish was Satin... (Silver) like the seatposts.... with a black Anno crossbar. They also did Blue and Red Anno colours too.
A Quick tip if you are using Polished Alloy seatposts: If you polish the post make sure you move it (side to side)regularly inside your frame... otherwise it will oxidise/weld its self to the inside of the seatube over time and you will end up with a stuck seat post

Good tip FM
Yep the one I had bitd had the black cross bar.
Can't believe you found one on the bay.
I've been keeping my eyes open. The only one I've seen is DMs (which is about to finish £51 atm)

Thanks all, they are starting to clean up real good, I'm gonna have to get the clamps and bar anodised again as they look a bit tatty. I t was a lucky find on ebay, I got them for 45 quid which I though was a good price.

Hmmmm............ Just been looking at the anodising sticky up top. Looks like they can do satin silver on the bars as well as the black crossbar stuff ! I think I'm gonna have to phone these guys for a chat.
