I recently got some new bars and grips too. I feel like it really improved my ride. What do you think? Did it make a real difference that you can feel? I know the shorter stem feels obviously different, but what do you think of the bar/grips? Did you go from alloy to carbon?
I bought an Enve RSR low rise carbon bar and some big fat Red Monkey Klampz grips. I think they really dampen the trail buzz and chatter. I was using an alloy Raceface bar and stock Santa Cruz grips.
