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
