Date Reviewed: June 13, 2007 | | Favoriate Trail: | XC + Downhill | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Strengths: | Excellent shape, look, feel and weight | | Weaknesses: | As with any carbon, you have to be carefull how much to tight the screws on it. But it should be reinforced enough on particulate places.
The instant weeknes is that my stock stem looks like a scrap next to this handlebar and to replace it with adequate stem would cost me just further money. | | Similar Products Used: | Just stock aloy handlebars | | Bike Setup: | Trek 8500, model year 2007
The handlebar swap is a part of replacement of most of the Bontrager's parts on it. | | Bottom Line: | I am used to wide hold in downhill and bar ends for uphill. For such combination this handlebar is unbeateble, plus the low rizer shape doesn't look inappropriate on the XC bike.
If you on the other hand belongs to those who tends to have the handlebar so short to place just shifter/lever clamp and grip on it, than run away from here.
I am giving 4 chilis for a value, because its quite expensive but overall its definitely 5. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
