Pros: Lightweight
Stiff
Helps take the edge off vibrations

Cons: None

Recommendation: I love this bar. Carbon definitely helps with vibrations and after-ride numbness over aluminum. Love the look of it.

Pros: Love the ability of the carbon bar to take some edge off rough trails. Also the titanium anti-crush zone is useful for stems that aren't really nice to carbon.

Cons: Some of the decals are kind of obnoxious. I would have preferred a cleaner looking "naked" carbon look.

Recommendation: A definite good buy for anyone looking for a strong, flexible bar for AM and XC riding.
