from Bath, UK Date Reviewed: January 19, 2011 Strengths: Light weight, looks, quality of carbon, shape, feel, weight! Weaknesses: The titanium mesh is only just below the laquer. One of the ends had a slight (<1mm) chip in this but it allows the mesh to start peeling up. Only noticed becasue it scratched my hand. A tiny blob of epoxy sorted it. Finish seems quite prone to showing little scratches too. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Whites Level Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $35.00 Purchased At: eBay Similar Products Used: Truvativ Noir, Easton EC90, EA30, Some OE cannondale bar etc etc Bike Setup: I actually now have this bar on my Brompton folder!

After a light fall which happend when she was just starting to ride, this so "durable" handlebar was gone. Syntace didn't gave any replacement on garantie. Now we bought another more stable handlebar which is somne 2 gramms heavier but holds.
