Any recomendations for Bars for SS 29er.
Ideally 700mm +
Sunline 762's currently ridiculously cheap at Chain Reaction... Just bought some the other day thinking I'd cut them down, and well... They're awesome! They're staying 762mm long for now.
Can be cut down as far as 660mm though if required.
fleegles are working for me, if you like a bit of sweep.
niner flat top is nice but those sunlines are ridiculous value and feel just right on my ss 29er
Titec flat tracker
Niner flat tops are undoubtedly the comfiest bars I've ever had 😀
Thanks
What length stems do you run
A 50mm, an 80mm and a 100mm.
90 or a 70 for me...
that's a bit long for on here so don't tell anyone...
Started at 90, now on 80 with bars rolled back a little.
USE Wide Flattie is really nice. 710mm wide carbon.
I've been using it with a 90mm stem and (after some fiddling to get the sweep rotated just right) it's been great.
Bars - as 26" bike.
Stem - 8 to 11cm.
90-100mm and that's following a measure up at Bike Science in Brizzle.
Easton EA70, 685mm. Feel narrow compared to the bars on the Pitch, but they're better for woodsy singletrack where the 29er lives.
The X-lite carbon flat bars are ace, on sale at crc at the moment. Lones loops are magic if run a stiff frontage, and I use a ec70 carbon wide bar as well. Only 685 but spot on for racing for me with 100 mm stem
Stem length is determined not by what other people use but on your torso and arm length measurments.
You want the bike to fit you correctly right?
Race Face Turbine Wide - love it.
Sunline 762 from CRC here too. Had Niner flat tops before but they felt a bit narrow at 710. I don't have many trees to fit between up here and I am quite broad shouldered.
One more for the Sunlines!
I initially thought the same as mboy and despite some branches trying to shorten the sleeves of my clothes, they're staying wide.
