ebay
Strengths:
Weight. Horizontal angle not so close as others lowrisers. Color, i just love the gold version. Made in Austria.
Weaknesses:
Stiffness, I feel it flexes more than my old syncros
Similar Products Used:
syncros lowriser
Bike Setup:
Kona Blast frame, Marzocchi Mx comp eta fork, xt-lx components
Bottom Line:
I´ve been using flat bars for years. When i first tried a lowriser (syncros xc) my wrists got very stressed due to bar angles. I tried several positions and nothing worked. I bought this Roox DBS riser and problem solved! It´s a mixture between a flat bar and a lowriser. I would recommend it to any xc rider who wants some more efficient than a lowriser and more comfortable than a flat bar.
