Purchased At:
On Top & came with bike before
Strengths:
Wide, 2.5" Rise, Good Value, Oversized 31.8 clamping surface, Super Stiff, Tough, Fairly Flat, Not Swept Back too much
Weaknesses:
Hard to find in stores. Funn website seems to have disappeared.
Bike Setup:
Norco Shore/Monster
Bottom Line:
Awesome bar. I love the angles and the rise. I'm 230 lbs and this bar does not flex. Super tough, but I am replacing it as a precaution after 2 years hard use and abuse. My replacement is another Fatboy Slim. Five flaming dog turds.

Strengths:
tough, rigid... I'm a sucker for any component that says "fatboy" on it... But they didn't spell PHAT like it's supposed to be!!
Weaknesses:
none yet without reaching
Bottom Line:
Tough as hell, the bead blasting is a nice touch. I'm 235lbs and ride really hard. This fatboy hasn't given me any indication that it's about to fail yet. Inexpensive for an oversized bar too.
