Decided I don't like any of the designs on joystick, easton, fatbar etc. I've decided to mask and spray my own design. So im lookimg for some good quality long carbon bars that won't snap on my first bounce down the hills. Anyone point me in the right direction?

Aliexpress?

Syntace Vector Carbon High 20/35 - 780mm wide.

Plain graphics, high attention to detail, 2 different backsweep options and it's one of the strongest carbon bars on the market. Expensive though....but bars are the one area I wouldn't cheap out on carbon and Syntace product are trust worthy and rigorously tested. Cheap carbon rims are ok, if they crack the spokes hold the wheel together long enough to finish riding.

You also get a 10 year warranty with them....

You'll find some on ebay for under £20.
My £13 ones have done a few thousand miles on them and I haven't died yet.

Thanks Tom, again need them to be blank, rather not spend time trying to take anything off.

Lightman, I seen those but just don't trust the quality for 20 quid.

Cool, if you don't mind me asking, is this for a stealthy city/cycle courier build or something - keeping the bike unattractive to thieves?

Answer 20/20s and some electrical tape worked for me!

But I was going for plain black for aesthetics rather than a plain base for my own stuff.

Easton Haven in 2014 version are at CRC for £60. 170g claimed for 711mm x 20mm. Look like stealth graphics in the pics.

Was going to say Thomson. That's what I've got, superb bars and very limited graphics. Hate stuff splattered in graphics personally.
