Having trouble finding something that is comfy on my steamroller, anyone familiar with what bars are on this cinelli ?

No, but I like them -- they look kind of similar to the On-One Mary bars that I have on my mountain bike. Very comfortable; I thought about putting them on my Steamroller when I gave up the Mungo moustache bar, but ended up with a simple riser instead. If you find out what they are, please post!

I tried ordering a Soma Noah's Arc bar, and they were out of stock for months.

I've tried riser bars, flat bars, midge bars, bull horn bars, and just about everything else and I keep coming back to standard drop road bars...


I honestly can't find anything nearly as comfortable....

The Sparrow bars have popped up on a few bikes lately, they look different enough to give a try.

And those "risers" on that beautiful lugged steel Cinelli are hideous. Save them for the IRO's, the Pake's, and the ghetto conversions.:D

Dunno, but the Campy Pista wheels are beautiful...

It's a show bike, doesn't have to make sense.

Some of the Origin 8 bars (http://www.origin-8.com/flash/index.swf) are pretty interesting, go to bars then urban.
