Called HQ--Will was certain they are the heat treated aluminum. That's cool. Didn't bother to ask what the "TT" inscription means, though.
Looks like they've been mounted before, but barely used. Seem to be aligned and in fine shape. Will's theory was that it was due to an angry break-up. My theory is that somehow they wound up on a bike that someone bought on Craigslist. The new owner, unaware of the joys of Boscos, let alone their monetary value, swapped them out for some "cooler" bars. Im going to throw out a guess they were bullhorns, because that kind of person would probably do that (maybe it was the dude who yelled "nice girls bike!" that one day as I rode by on my Bosco'ed commuter). Anyway that's just a theory, and whatever really happened, I hope they're happy now that they purged their apartment of a pair of huge bicycle handlebars. Another man's treasure...
