Any idea if these bars are Rickman or not?

Rickman bars are Brazed.  :coolsmiley:

Have a look and see if the "welds" are really neat.

They are not that neat no BUT what i can see of other Rickman bars they dont look that clever.
Spentmost of the night looking for a picture of just a set or bars :-\

They're pretty similar, but I don't think they're Rickman - There's more of a bend in the top tubing where it comes down from the grips to the "crossbar" area on Rickman bars - but it may well just be the angle of view in your pic?
I've definitely got a pic of mine from face on saved here somewhere on the 'puter - will see if i can find it.

What are yours measuring at, widthwise?

Yep that also sounds about right - no knurling at the stem area on this set of mine.
