I have a set of *** flat bars, they do not come with a "carbon weave"
finish, or rather they do but it is incredibly fine. My Easton seatpin
looks like carbon, it comes with a very course weave, whereas the
Bontrager bars at first glance don't look like they are woven, they
seem dark grey/black, much closer inspection reveals a tight weavein
places verging on unidirectional in places such as where they go from
the centre diameter to the control mounting portion.
hope that helps a little.

Would say i am fairly certain that *** only come in 31.8 if that helps.
