Default handlebars,,, narrow with pullback...

I've searched everywhere !

my OLD body is requiring I keep my arms close to the body, so I'm gonna need a set of bars that are narrow,, (27"-29") , with a pull back of (14"-15"),, and the stock rise of 5"-6" is fine.
.
any suggestion on where i can find something like that, or any suggestion on who might be able to bend a set (I'm in the Raleigh/Durham/Chape Hill , north carolina area).....It would be nice to find someone in this area so we can build a raw set and can tweek if necessary before any finish. But anywhere is fine.

(or)

any other suggestion / recommendation ?
getting OLD , sucks!
thanks,,
marion..
