$32.00 | | Purchased At: | ebay | | Strengths: | extremely durable! | | Weaknesses: | nodda damn thing | | Similar Products Used: | easton riser | | Bike Setup: | Rock Shox SID; Rhyno Lites on XTR's; Avid Arch Rival brakes (AWESOME!); XT Crank, XT Front Der.; XTR Rear der.; XT cassete; DEAN seatpost; XT 9spd rapid fires; Avid speed dial 7 levers; cane creek headset; ROOX Slambar; KORE elite 3 stem; and Yeti hardcore grips | | Bottom Line: | these bars are the bomb in bomber! they simply are awesome. i would recomend these to anyone. the whole ROOX lineup is sweet. if you feel a little uneasy about the strength of the bars (which you shouldn't) ROOX also sells a Slambar, which is basically a crossbar to maximize the strength of the bar and it also looks cool as hell! These are cheap and very effective! | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: July 6, 2000 | | Favoriate Trail: | Urban | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Strengths: | good warrenty | | Weaknesses: | it bent on the second ride | | Similar Products Used: | Ameba, Raceface, Azonic | | Bike Setup: | Kona Chute, mavic 521 / Rhyno lite rims, Gazzoladi / Kujo tires, Z1 Dropoff | | Bottom Line: | I was given a promise that these would be the last pair of bars i bent. Good thing the warrenty covered them after they bent on the second ride.
Maybe i got a bunk bar, because the pair on my bike now has lasted almost 3 months of 15ft concrete landings.
They're plenty wide for "freeriding," but downhillers might want something thats a little wider (Roox also makes a 29" bar.) Rise and sweep are really good. One of the more comforatable bars i've ridden, and cheeper than a Raceface | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

mammoth rims, toiga tires | | Bottom Line: | This is a very very strong bar, these are the thickest bars i have ever seen, as soon as i saw them i wanted them. I finally snapped my other bars in half, so it was time to upgrade. I love these bars, they are long enough to cut, (if you want, i run mine full length) and they will NEVER break. I would hate to see the person who could snap them. | | Overall Rating: |
