U1 Springbars - any recommendations?

Post by jbsf3 » Fri Apr 29, 2016 12:43 am

Looking for a pair or two of springbars for my U1, they don't necessarily need to be factory, just good quality. Any recommendations? Thanks much!

Hank (twente0 on eBay). 22mm x 2.0mm shoulder less bars with 1.0mm tips. Perfect on Sinn U-series.

Hank makes the best out there hands down. I will be getting some of these in the future when I put some flames out :mrgreen:

Just FYI;

The U series use 1.0 tips

Most Rolex & Seiko use 1.2 tips. The ones who don't take 1.2 generally take 1.0.

Many other brands use .08-1.0 tips, but Hank has them all.

On my Ranger I use his "Glycine" bars in 22mm

My EZM3F uses his shoulder less bars in 20x2.0 with 1.0 tips. It functions like fixed lugs.

The Glycine style bars would be better for 6/7/8 series Sinns.

I have some 24mm Glycine style bars coming for my Stowa, as 1.0 tips are too big for the holes.
