Steel Mustache Handlebar 470-25mm Vintage Touring Bike Eroica R13-1

It carries the swept Moustache profile that gives touring bikes their upright, back-swept hand position, and it is recorded as manufactured in France with no oxidation noted on the part. For a rider assembling a classic touring bike or completing an Eroica-eligible build, that combination — steel, French origin, clean surface — is the whole appeal.

What the 470-25mm format means for a touring build

Width and clamp diameter are the two numbers that decide whether a handlebar works on a given frame. Check your stem's diameter before fitting; the swept mustache shape moves the hands rearward and upward relative to a flat bar, which is the geometry long-distance riders have favoured for decades.

• Profile: mustache, with the rearward sweep typical of touring handlebars
• Material: steel
• Width: 470 mm
• Origin: France

Condition notes

The photos are part of the description. This is a used vintage component, so minor cosmetic marks or traces of long storage — fine scratches, for instance — can be present without being individually listed. No oxidation is recorded on this handlebar. Pair it with a matching stem from our AVA vintage bicycle stem, 22-25-60 mm to keep the cockpit coherent, and finish the setup with a pair of Sufficit handlebar grips. For wider alternatives in the same swept family, see the 42.5 cm touring bike handlebar.
