Recommend me the perfect handle bar to buy for my 20" 2012 Orange Five AM. On a budget so i'm not interested in a anything ridiculously expensive.

Thanks

Depends what colour your bike is. Any girl knows that.

I love my two 745mm x 19mm Sunline bars... and at CRC price they are kind of hard to resist...

Edit - good call Jeffus

I've got superstar descents I think on mine - 780mm, flat bar (though they do a riser but I wanted to.keep the front lower for the techy black mountains climbs), great sweep feel good and all the colours under the sun, nearly. About £35 and delivered next day. So good I've got 2 pairs!

I have Sunline V1 745's and Nukeproof Warhead 760's. Both are good but based on the CRC prices above I'd definitely be going for the Sunlines.

Go for the full fat Easton Havoc! 750mm, feels great & as strong as you'll ever need. Can't go wrong imo 🙂

Renthal again, keep it British. 60 quid though I think.

Sunline on both bikes here. Used to be a devout Easton man, but Sunline's shape and width wins out for me now. And at the silly prices you can get em currently, I wouldn't look any further...

Cheers for all your help folks.

Ended up going for the Sunline V1 745 and I also got some Sunline grips. Never ordered from CRC before so I hope they are good.

boom, these are lovely things. I had Race Face Atlas AM's before and they were very nice and light, but just not quite wide enough.

Can't really go wrong...was going to suggest Nukeproof, but Sunline is fine and dandy. I'm running full on 760mm Nukeproofs on my AM bike and 710mm bars on both my XC full suss and my hardtail (Funn Fatboy which is ace on my old Spesh Enduro and 710mm Syncros bars on my Orange Pure 7). Enjoy!
