Cinelli RAM vs Deda Alanera

[luisp]

I was going to crown my xmas present with one of these bars, and wanted other people opinion on which they prefered.

I have only tried out the RAM, I actually like the feel on the top of the bars, but found the drops to be a little flimsy. Anyone know if the Deda Alanera is any stiffer in the drops? And how do the cables(brake/shifters) route on the Deda Alanera?

I have the Deda Alanera and it is really a lovely handlebar.!!!!

that thing on the front is optional to mount and supplied with each handlebar.

it fits both normal and oversized forks

it is very stiff. has a very nice clearcoat and the cable routing is on the downside of the handlebar and really 'integrated'.
