This is common.. Happend all the time as kids. You work on your bike so much, you lossen the neck and the bars fall back and the cross bar hits the top tube.. Do that about a half dozen times and you have a nicely rounded cross bar..

Might not be what you want to hear ,But they look alot like the Bars on my 86 Randor...Only thing is mine are steel I think and yours look to be alum. to me in the pics...

I meant bars are not distorted but what the H**L , I'll trash'em. I don't use alloy bars anyway. I just thought I had seen where someone actually made bars like these. ( not from crashing )

Mine are not bent from crashing ,lol... They are exactly like these ... Randor's are Low End Department Store bikes made by Anlun...Hold on ,I'm gonna go check right now to see what material the bars are...Steel they are.

those aluminum bars were made like that...I forgot the brand, but yea, its factory!
If you look closely, you see the cross bar actually lines up with the sweep of the handle bars ends....designed to make a nice curve...

made for those old school knee knockers!!

Thanks flapjaqs , I was sure they were factory. If they were bent that much there would be some kind of stress in the lower bends. I appreciate it , If you think of the brand let me know.

I have a set that are NOS cruiser style. Look just like tuf neck or vdc cruiser bars but with the curved crossbar. I dont know what they are but they are real nice.
