As above guys, thinking of getting the carbon knuckleball in hard variety not chewy. Will they be as strong as top end carbon bars.

I've got a set of easton xc and easton dh carbon bars, which have lasted years

Only ridden my knuckleballs a couple of times and nothing too gnarly, but they seem fine so far, so can't speak to longevity, but nice finish and sweep is spot on for me

Sounds good then kimbers. Hopefully get a few more replys about them. I think they look great.

I picked up a set of the 777mm knuckle balls in hard for £39.99 at the end of last year. I'm very impressed with them. Very nice finish, stiff and reasonably light. I had a big off at Stiniog which had me off work for 2 weeks. The bars were completely unscathed.

I've a pair of the 777 knuckleball. Look fine, decent weight, nice finish, feel great on the bike, and for less than half the price of a Renthal, or any other top end bar, what's not to like?

I've got the hard 747mm Knuckleballs on both my hardtail and full sus. Can't fault them.
