He is the picture, the last spacer make everything level, doesn’t have the same shape as the others:

I really like this handlebar! I see multiple versions of this one on Ali with wildly varying prices. Which one did you get and are you happy with it?

I bought that one, but it was sub 100$ at the time, after coupon and taxes I paid $91

I took the rod version because I am not a fan of big flares. As far as quality, I think it ok but the openings for cable routing are tight on the bar, ok on the stem, and they need to be cleaned up.
The other issue is the bottom spacer is super shallow on the down side so the C ring adapter for the steerer need to be very slim, ended up hand filing about 2mm of it, keeps you busy for a while!

Almost done, just missing bar tape, clear film for frame protection and bottle cages
Went for a check up ride, everything feels good, shifting is good, I need to get use to riding “road” bike as it’s really different from mtb, it will take time to build confidence I think.
