Salsa Moto Ace Bars – Which ones 5, 11 or 17 degrees???

If you got a picture of your bike with your recommendations on please let me see em

Thanks

Mine are 11 all though i think they may be pro moto.

You're the only person that knows the answer to this.

What sweeps have you tried before?

I've got 11's on my tandem and 17's on my paradox and like them both.

17's

11's on my scandal

You're the only person that knows the answer to this.

I haven't ever tried any – LOL

Just wanted to know what people were running as in my mind the 17 degrees would be really bent back but by the looks of the picture they aren't.

11s look good though…

Ha just realised those pics are old ones with bonty big sweeps on but I think they are 11 as well but not as wide.

I'd stick with 11's then.

I say this as folks that have ridden some of my bikes have comented on how different the 17's feel but I've never had anyone say anything about the 11's.

Swede the Bonty feels exactly like the Salsa.

i run mine slightly rolled to give a smidge of upsweep as that suits my monkey arms

I've got 17's on my Carver and I really like 'em. I believe they don't look too funny either. 😉

Yeah they do. Just wanted a wider bar. Think the bontys are only about 660 ish. Nasty. On her bike now 😀

You spoil her don't you. 😉

I've got a lovely set of Salsa carbon bars downstairs 😉

Is that a euphemism for you have floaters in the down stairs loo.
Stu, she is a very very lucky lady.

what are you going to do with them? run round the house holding them pretending to rail berms off the dog whilst making single speed noises (grunting, breathing heavily and gurning slightly*)

* any resembleace to any other activity of a horizontal nature is purely coincidental as I don't want any scary mental images of the ayatollah on the job waving a carbon bar about!

I'm going to give them to some numpty who turns up in the Forest of Dean 3 weeks on Sat and rides a SS bike.

ooooooo shiny prize things, well done for getting some of those, I love mine 😀

I've got a Stem to match as well 😉
