$110.00 | | Purchased At: | UC Cyclery | | Strengths: | Torque values printed right on the bar, not too long (580mm), ends accept Specialized Plugs for bar ends. | | Weaknesses: | Price, weight | | Similar Products Used: | Titec Carbon Riser | | Bike Setup: | 26lb Specialized XC-comp, matchmakers for Juicy Ultimates and XO shifters, KCNC stem, post, cranks, BB. | | Bottom Line: | Good bar so far, no issues. I don't notice any flex, or reduced vibration off the stock bar. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

from Northern Cal Date Reviewed: February 25, 2007 | | Duration Product Used: | More than 3 years | | Purchased At: | Reeds Bike Shop San Jose | | Strengths: | Bulletproof for cross country use. This bar has seen several crashes, including a particarly nasty one in the demo forest, and has come away unscathed every time. | | Weaknesses: | None noted. | | Similar Products Used: | Answer taperlite | | Bike Setup: | Santa Cruz Heckler: Fox Air lockout rear, Rock shox fork, Sram Gripshift, Paul rear derailleur, Mavic ceramic, Hugi Comp hubs, Innovative V-brakes, Avid brake levers, bebop pedals. | | Bottom Line: | Stealth bulletproof bar. This review is for a 10 year old bar that has proven itself through many tumbles with a 175lb rider. Not sure about the newer bars but this one is a bit narrow. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
