Reviews
Pros
Vibration, Vibration, Vibration dampening. Looks slick.
Cons
Only comes in black..I'm joking. A little difficult to get the ODI lock-on grips to grab.
Review
What a difference a good carbon bar can make. it helps filter out the myraid of frequencies coming through the bike into our bodies via our hands and arms. Definitely helps reduce fatigue. Intended for XC but I play the AM game with them without issue.
Pros
Light weight. Strong. Vibration dampening. Alignment indicator prinited on bars. Reinforced clamp zones. Thick clear coat layer to protect Carbon fiber underneath.
Cons
Expensive.
Review
Sweet carbon riser bars for people looking to lighten up the front end and get a bit of vibration dampening to boot. Not an item I would be brave enough to go hit major jumps with but fantastic for aggresive XC.
