| Duration Product Used: | Less than 1 month |
| Price Paid: | $7 |
| Purchased At: | LBS |
| Strengths: | Cheap!!! Has the dimensions I want in a riser bar (width, sweep & rise) |
| Weaknesses: | unknown durability, not shot-peened, a little heavy |
| Bike Setup: | Rigid!!! Shimano LX components. |
| Bottom Line: | An inexpensive way to make riding a lot more comfortable. The improvement in steering feel with this bar is incredible compared to my old cowhorn style handlebar (which was too narrow). |

| Duration Product Used: | 1 Year |
| Price Paid: | $15 |
| Purchased At: | Cykel och Mopedhandlaren |
| Strengths: | Very stiff, awesome look, wide enough. Amasingly cheap considering all of its strengths. |
| Weaknesses: | It's heavy, but hey, it's a DH thing. Are there any other weaknesses? NO! |
| Similar Products Tried: | Simply a lot of handlebars |
| Bike Setup: | IDEAL Race Pro Team, full XT with XT disckbrakes. Marzocchi Z3 100 Air...etc |
| Bottom Line: | Get this handlebar now, it's cheap and it's stylish. It is very strong and endures everything. This handlebar will not bend or snap. However, the handlebar I own is a 2001 model, but it is the exact same model except color (the 2001 model is a lot cooler!). |
