Any moon on stick recommendations? 740mm minimum, preferably a bit lighter than the ~340g that most DH orientated bars seem to be.

According to CRC nukeprrof warhead 760's are under 300g!

I got their ex demo flat bars for £20 a couple of weeks ago. I'd be surprised if that weight was correct although I don't give a rats arse about that kind of thing.

[i]just about[/i] [url= http://www.on-one.co.uk/i/q/HBELGUANB/el-guapo-ancho-b-handlebar ]ticks all the boxes[/url] (presuming the weight's not an outright lie). Not that I've tried one, just browsed it earlier. Feel free to be my guinea pig. 😀

As others have said, Nukeproof.

Also try Kore and Funn, both cheap, both wide, not sure about weight.

Look for some carbon havocs or the new carbon havens (think they are 740 v the old one 711 and old havoc 750). Might be lucky and get some for £80ish

Carboncycles Exotic - they do [url= http://www.carboncycles.cc/?s=0&t=2&c=94&p=1269 ]770 and 750s[/url]... 167g for £60, so not cheap, but not very expensive either.

Ritchey Trail 2X - 740mm wide, decent amount of sweep, sub 300g and just over £30 brand spanking new!

In fact if it's a flat version you're after (they come in a 20mm riser too) I've got one spare right now...

The on-ones at 9.99 are a bargain, I've just run a pair for 2 days of uplifts and they are great value, cant fault them to be honest.
And they are less than a tenner!

I think some people are missing the 'cheap' bit

On-one El Guapo Ancho. £30-40, 760 + 810 with the latter being flatter. Light and much the same shape as Nukeproof. Very good bar, so great value.
