    Submitted by Pebble a Cross Country Rider from Australia
    Date Reviewed: October 2, 2006
    Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
    Purchased At:Stock
    Strengths:Look alright, probably a good budget bar
    Weaknesses:Seem flexy, and seemed too wide
    Similar Products Used:Truvativ Hussefelt 35mm rise, Truvativ Team riser 2" both OS
    Bike Setup:Trance 3
    Bottom Line:It would have been partially the ea30 100mm stem, but they seemed to make the bike handling feel too slow, I guess that could be also attributed to the width. And the ea30 set up seemed a bit flexy to me as well.
    I still think they are good value bars but don't look anywhere near as good as 31.8 bars (personal opinion of course).
    I also thought it was odd that they were lighter than the EA50's & I guess that's where flex / strenght wouldn't be as good in comparison.

    Favoriate Trail:blue
    Duration Product Used:6 months
    Purchased At:ben's
    Strengths:This bar was on the Bianchi single-speed that I bought this winter,I was skeptical at first because I am die-hard flat bar guy. But the bend is just so darn comfy and it is really wide for s-s leverage.
    Weaknesses:I know it is to heavy but were talking $650 bike.
    Similar Products Used:raceface, too much sweep.
    Bike Setup:Bianchi SASS stock but for clip-less peddles and bontrager super-x's
    Bottom Line:I want the same bend of bar in a really light version for my carbon Fuel.

    Favoriate Trail:centenial park
    Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
    Purchased At:Mike's Bike Shop
    Strengths:This came on my Giant Rainier 06, the bars very stiff, not to wide, looks nice in black ( one thing i noticed is that it's 50 g lighter than the better ea50 which i found was odd)
    Weaknesses:i havent found none yet, hopefully there will be none
    a bit heavey compared to the higher end.... weight weinies wont like it
    Similar Products Used:Syncros ti
    Bike Setup:06 Giant Rainier stock
    Bottom Line:the bar feels right, isnt too heavy (could be worst), and looks and feels like it will last quite some time

    i would advise this product for aggressive xc riders or heavier riders.. dosnt creak like some handle bars do

    I give it 5 for value and 4 for overall because it could be lighter, but no complaints
