Can't seem to find any apart from GT Pro, so was thinking of Federal 20/20? As they are 8.25 rise and 28 width, whats best?

Also have a nos white Aeroyal seat which I may swap for some New style Redline flights

LOL I too remember CW's (were they not a 30" wide bar?)

But my fave 2 bars from then was the Renthal bar or the VDC Monkey-bars!!

Si' (cupid stunt) has a set of the quite large 10" rise GT bars I think.

I've never seen bigger bars on a bmx in my life. A definate stand out from MK a couple of years back

Renthal made loads of different sized bars in the 80's, Glyn Lewis rode the biggest ones available around 86, they were huge I wouldn't like to guess the rise but the cross bar was a similar height to a pair of CW's top bar.

I'd go with new school bars, way stronger, less flex, wont be crushed when you tighten the stem, better to ride with, no worrying bout trashing a decent set of old bars

Be daft not to...
