Wide and stiff......you can always cut some off, but I wouldn't try to add some on. A lot lighter than anything else I've had hold up for at least 3mth's.

I did scratch the finish - under grip insalling my new Hayes Stroker Ace's( burr on mount). Becareful if you care.

Be Careful installing it. The white paint will ding and scratch if you don't take your time installing it. Very Wide so make sure that's what you want or be ready to cut it down.

Bottom Line:
A very good handlebar, i love the 2" rise. White color match perfectly my white SC Nomad. It' stiff but a bit heavy. It's wide for me, i'm plan to cut a cm on each hand. I buy it only for the white color, but after some trails i'm happy with it.
