Lauterwasser bars were the creation of cyclist John Lauterwasser in abouts the 1920's / 1930's. It's a German name and is traditionally pronounced "Lot-Ta-Vassa". John was born in London, and he pronounced it "lorda-was-suh". These bars became famous on 1930's path racers by the names of Iver Johnson and his Truss bike, the Raleigh Golden arrow, and many others. They were essentially track bikes with wide tires for racing on a dirt path
