Bottom Line:
This is the only Extralite product not made in Italy. But its still pure craftsmanship. The quality of the carbon and rise/sweep is very comfortable. It has a large carbon weave compared to other bars...similar to Scott's carbon. I would never thought a carbon bar this lite could be this rigid. I have put my body weight on the bars during rough sections and while the fork bottoms out the bars never felt flexi.
