$30.00 | | Purchased At: | Procyclery | | Strengths: | Looks, length, weight, rise and strength. | | Weaknesses: | None that I have found yet. | | Similar Products Used: | Stock Specialized riser. | | Bottom Line: | I love this bar! I bought this and my stem on the same day. I was looking into RaceFace, Easton and Answer bars also. This bar doesnt bend or creak. The length is perfect, no need for cutting. The PD logo is painted and not a cheap sticker. The paint finish is matted and looks great. The rise has help me handle the bike much better, especially on difficult climbs. For the price, I think this is worth every penny. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: May 25, 2003 | | Duration Product Used: | 1 Year | | Bike Setup: | '03 Santa Cruz Bullit | | Bottom Line: | It's light, it's strong and it's design enables you to set up the position you want just by rotating it. The bar has a slightly different "feel" to it compared to a lot of other bars I've tried, but it works.
Cool anodized silver grey finish makes the bike look great. A little pricey for a handlebar, but reccommended. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$39.00 | | Purchased At: | lbs | | Strengths: | wide | | Weaknesses: | weight i guess 290gr. | | Bike Setup: | cannondale w/ mars 1 ,stylos,xtr-s.o.b,valiants,risers | | Bottom Line: | I got raped on the price at my LBS. Thought I saw them for 49 bucks on the net, wrong brand, my mistake. Get them for cheap and you won't regret it. I had trouble with my riding position and after trying different saddle adjustments I tried these and now I'm in heaven. I have more fun riding stuff I couldn't ride before. Lack of balls or the lack of talent? Who knows but I'm doing it all now. Best thing I did to my bike yet. Gave them 4 chili's cause they could be lighter. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$25.00 | | Purchased At: | Silverdale Cyclery | | Strengths: | Good rise; strong (so far); great width; cool anodized color | | Weaknesses: | none that I've found | | Similar Products Used: | n/a | | Bike Setup: | Raleigh M80 w/ shimano clipless pedals, specialized bg comp seat | | Bottom Line: | I bought these to try and make the ride a bit more comfortable. The single best thing I've done to my bike so far. More experienced riders say riser bars make it harder to climb, but I haven't noticed that. It's easier to wheelie up onto obstacles and really makes the seating position easier to bear for both my butt and lower back. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
