I thought the entire point of that version of the bars is that they look horrible?
TBH I don't think you should be buying carbon bars- reason being, you asked me about my Monkeylite DHs "have they ever been crashed". Well, if you look at a bar like that and think "Oh it's carbon, what if it's been crashed on, it might snap" then you will never be happy with the material. Almost every other carbon bar ever made is weaker, and sooner or later you'll be in a crash, will you stop trusting those too?
Quality carbon bars are strong and reliable, and you don't need to be precious about them or paranoid. But if you are, then it's not the material for you.

Its not just the dark stuff- there's wierd crazing in the kevlar as though they've actually been dragged against something before the lacquer coat. Then there are the square single sheets of carbon underneath (not like the wrap pattern you normally see on cheapo c456's- this is a single dark sheet over lighter material.
Shoddy.

they look exactly the same as the pic on the hotlines website.. I was dithering between a raw carbon/kevlar Carnegie and an ally one last year.. my pocket dictated that I went for the ally version the end..
after reading this thread I wish I'd shelled out the extra few quid for the carbon badboys.. they look flippin' swish..

IMO, even without that 'powder' staining or whatever it is, they look rubbish.
