It's a NukeProof warhead IIRC. Flat and wide.

So now we've had to endure the "should I buy this bike?" threads for a week, now it's "what should I upgrade this component to?" threads?

I'm still available if you need a hand with the wee-wee btw.

I love mine, went from 660mm wide 2" rise x-lite g-force bars(rather old scratched ones at that) to a set of 737mm 19mm rise sunline v1 OS's so much more comfortable for me (I have fairly wide shoulders and felt cramped on the old bars, but when I bought them they were pretty much as wide as you could get)

What's your idea of wide? Just that I saw What Mountain Bike called 680mm narrow this month :mrgreen: To me 680mm is pretty wide so I'd recommend Truvativ's Noir Team low rise. Strong, light, and generally not too expensive.

I've got the Nukeproof low-rise bar on my Blue Pig. I've not cut them down as yet, at 760mm they are a pita moving the bike around in the workshop etc, but I have to say I really like the feel of them on the trail. Probably only a matter of time till I get caught between the trees though....

May very well give those a try if the front end still seems high
