    RidgerRunner spreader bars - oops!

    In my enthusiasm to de-clutter my basement it seems my RidgeRunner spreader bars somehow made it into the discard pile.

    I need to get a new set of spreader bars for a heavy hanger (250lbs) and I had a custom set cut before but I can't for the life of me figure out where I had them made.

    Can anyone point me to a vendor who can do custom spreader bars and what dimensions would I be looking for? I have 39.5" and 28.5" listed as the sizes but I want to verify before I purchase.

    Thanks in advance.

    If they were made of carbon fiber, then Ruta Locura is a great vendor to deal with.

    Speak with Josh to determine proper diameter for your set up.

    It wasn’t carbon fiber but I’ll check them out regardless.

    You can purchase a replacement pair that nests from the Warbonnet site as well.

    I've been using my hiking poles so my stock spreaders just kind of sit if you're looking for a set. These are the "old" style with the larger diameter head tube but still with the little 4" extension piece.

    I ordered a replacement set from Warbonnet. I'll see if these are more sturdy than the originals.
