I was cleaning the racing bike and adding new cables and so forth. You know, getting her ready for the racing season and I weighed my Bontrager handlebar and stem. I've never liked Bontrager and now I REALLY don't like them. The stem is 300 or so grams and the bar is 400!

I guess everyone knows what my next purchase will be ;) !

CHRO-bar. I just took one off my bike recently, although I was aware of how heavy it was. The thing is great for real agressive riding though, where you want to be able to "trust" your bar, and it shouldn't catastrophically fail either. All this and they are pretty cheap here for the comp model (by the weight it sounds like the same one).
