Guys,
I am looking for a definitive list of bars, apart from GT Pro bars, that were available for a 1980 made frame and fork. I have plenty of GT bars and want to use something a little different on my next race build.
Thanks for your time,
Terry

I was going to add it was mostly pubs in 1980, bars didn't really appear until much later...does that help you?? ;D
-
Note my era correct use of Marathon, had i have said Snickers that would have been foolish

Cheers anyways

I think I may just grab a set of these and use these. They do them in unknurled chrome :smitten:

Nice, way cheaper than the originals and probably way stronger if they're for a rider :daumenhoch:
-
Thruster Bars :)

SE Maxi-Power Bars
Not for less then £300 plus they were replaced with the powerwing by then :daumenhoch:

Very good bars those, stronger than cooks and have a slightly different geometry.

Nope , they were'nt available in 1980 :LolLolLolLol:

I want some for a 1980 Torker but don't want Torker bars or GT pro bars. Something different would be nice.
Were Powerbends available in 1980?

Rampar Pro bars.
Not as sought after as the thruster bars that look pretty similar but they were an after market part in the brochures and good enough for Toby Henderson and Jeff Bottema :daumenhoch:
