| Strengths: |
looks nice with the carbon finish natural with a no gloosy clearcoats. |
| Weaknesses: |
it is weak as a tuthpick, I just left the "tested or demo'ed only, as the mtbr system did not allowed for less than a month. I bought this handlebar to replace my trusty CF-1, the first ride was to start in an uphill ride at Rochy Hill Ranch, TX. it BROKE!! with no warning at all, at the start of the climb. |
| Similar Products Tried: |
Azonic carbon CF-1, Easton MonkeyLite XC Carbon. |
| Bike Setup: |
Azonic Saber '04, full Sram X-9 with new XO shifters, Hayes El Camino DB, Race Face Atlas crancks, King HS, Azonic outlaws wheels & Nevegal 2.35 tubless converted, Azonic stem, seatpost & pedals |
| Bottom Line: |
the worst ever made handlebar, dangerous to any rider and considering is an oversized 31.8 clamp and a DH aplication, it can kill you. No warranty backup from Beyondbikes, they sent me back to Azonic, and considering I have plenty of experience as a mtb biker (20 years)and that the handlebar was purchased 3 days before my ride, and now as a ping-pong ball seeking a warranty; I am buying a new frame and removing all azonic components.
is it possible to remove the one chili as the rating is to legal-sute for intended murder... |
