from Hawaii, USA Date Reviewed: April 4, 2009 Strengths: Well, it's an Easton...white & yellow graphics are, sutle not too flashy. I don't need my bar full of brand labels or designs. Length of bar (685mm) is perfect for me. It's of medium weight which is okay with me too. It's really stiff (31.8mm) and doesn't flex much which I like. Doesn't creak or make noises either. I also have a matching EA 70 alloy stem that holds the bar securely & is a solid steer/control combo setup. The price is great too. Check ebay, Jenson USA or Pricepoint for the money saving deals on the EA 50 bars! Weaknesses: It's may not be carbon(overated) or feather weight enough for 'dem weight weenies. Perhaps not flashy enough graphics? Unless you're a professional racer or sponsored hot dog who cares?! Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: anywhere & any island Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Price Paid: $20.00 Purchased At: ebay seller Similar Products Used: EA 30 & 70 Truvativ Hussefelt Kona riser DB stock bar was heavy, felt like it was made of iron. Had to replace it with this Easton. Bike Setup: '08 DB(Diamondback) Metallic Lime Green Topanga which came with Rock Shox Dart 1 fork yes(the pogo stick), changed/upgraded to a R.S. Tora 302.

from San Antonio, TX Date Reviewed: June 17, 2008 Strengths: Low rise is a big improvement over my straight handle bar. It it a little long but it is nice because I like that it allows me to mount my Garmin eTrex, Cycle Computer and headlight with out getting too cluttered. It is extremely light weight. Weaknesses: A little long but could be cut down.
