Submitted by Remi Parent a Cross Country Rider from Canada
Date Reviewed: September 4, 2004
Favorite Trail:any single track
Duration Product Used:3 months
Strengths:Nice going downhills
Weaknesses:not ideal for cross country riding
Bike Setup:Specialized Epic 04
Bottom Line:This bar is great but not the greatest for cross country riding. It is a little too wide although it could be cut.
I changed the bar for a straight one and shorter and I ride better in single tracks now.
I would recommend this bar to anyone who does all terrain type of riding with some downhills.
You get more controll/balance with this bar but not the stiffness, quickness (fast turns in changing direction) of a straight one.

This bar came stock on my Epic 04
Value Rating:4Overall Rating:3
