What's the difference between these two? Are the Nittos lighter or something? The materials they are made of? Because I noticed the Somas are at least 30 bucks cheaper.

if price is an object, and you are not racing, always buy cheaper.
if you;re filthy rich, have at it.

Yeah, money is tight so I want the cheaper one, Somas. However, just wondering if the Nittos are worth the extra money.

where are you buying them?  the soma bar is like $40 and the nittos are like $40 online.  But the somas are steel which is pretty idiotic for handlebars.
soma just buys shit from taiwan and slaps their sticker on it, nittos are made in japan. 
just buy these: http://www.treefortbikes.com/108_333222338972__RB-021-Bullhorn-Bar.html
they weigh 250 grams vs 580 grams for those stupid somas.
