$25.00 | | Purchased At: | Beyondbikes.com | | Strengths: | Strong, light, anodized | | Similar Products Used: | Kore Lite 3 straight bar | | Bike Setup: | Motobecane Fantom, XT everything | | Bottom Line: | Great bar. I has just enough rise for an XC bike. It looks nice an has a wide grip for a technical riding. I put on a pair of Oury grips and have never thought about a different setup since. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$25.00 | | Purchased At: | Cambria Bicycle Outfitters | | Strengths: | Sexy looking set of riser bars. So far, strong and light. Clean anodized finish | | Weaknesses: | none so far | | Similar Products Used: | straigt bars | | Bike Setup: | 16','02 Response frame, Marzocchi Bomber 3.5 up front, Sun Ditch Witch wheelset, STX-RC shifters paired to XT med. cage rear and Acera front derailleurs. 75mm stem w/5 degree rise and 1 inch rise Kore Lite handlebars. Rockshox suspension seatpost under my butt. All on top of Tioga DH 2.1 tires | | Bottom Line: | Just made the switch to risers and so far, I'm glad I picked the Kore Lites. So far, I've taken these bars on 4ft. drops without any problems. I will drop bigger when it gets warmer out so look for a follow up review. Did I mention that they look very sexy! | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$20.00 | | Purchased At: | pricepoint | | Strengths: | Great Bar, light, great setup. | | Similar Products Used: | Kore Lite 2, Ritchey WCS | | Bike Setup: | Giant NRS Air, XT, Velocty Synergy Rims laced to Velocity Disc Hubs, Kore bar, stem, post. Avid Mech. | | Bottom Line: | Great bar so far. NO complaints from this XC rider. This is geared to XC, so its pretty light, strong and rides great. This is my first riser, after switching form a kore lite 2 and onza bar ends, love the riser, very comfortable. Fits great. Will update in the spring, see if i run into any bending problems like below. Can't imagine i'd bend a bar without a fall though. I'm 170, so it'd be tough at my weight. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: July 14, 2002 | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Strengths: | I got it for cheap, nice wide bar for stability in technical riding. reasonably light | | Weaknesses: | I bent it | | Bike Setup: | Custom steel single speed | | Bottom Line: | I'm not a freerider and I way a fairly lean 170lbs. I've never bent a handlebar before and was very surprised when someone pointed out that my bar looked bent. Sure enough it is. I do some technical riding but no huge drops or anything. It's actually bent downward and slightl backward making me wonder if the torque I but on it trying to push my 32x16 up the mostly short but very steep hills here in East Tenn. fatiqued it. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
