70's handle bar mystery

Another odd one for y'all

Came across a pair or handle bars in the loft when clearing out the old family home a couple of years ago, i was the only person in the household that was into bikes (but i don't remember buying them :-\) and only ever BMX's (after the Strika/Grifter days)

Done a Google search... No luck ???

RADNALL handle bars (obviously made in England), 30-1/2" wide, 8" rise, 7/8"diameter, satin black over chrome plate, original finish with original decal.

Odd place to put the decal, under the stem when fitted?, unless it's for a wide twin clamp stem.

My guess is they are 60's/70's motorbike bars, i.e. trials/scrambler?


Any ideas or feedback would be good

Look like 70's Crosser bars all the way! there were many British company's making bars in the 70's towards early 80's. Wassel, Randall, Renthal, Rickman, just loads!

Deffo motocross bar manufaturer, I had a set of Radnall's on my old Maico 490.  Not sure about those bars though as they are a bit high for MX bars.
