As title, opinions please! If anyone has an example picture that would be great as I can't find one.

Well, I can't really picture it in my head. The bars are only £23 from Wiggle, though, so I might just gamble.

I always wanted an orange and green bike. Almost did it, but I am selling the frame and the few green bits hint hint 😉

635mm? Really?! I'm hoping they're 680mm as listed here:

Says 25" on the description tab... There's [url= http://www.wiggle.co.uk/race-face-deus-xc-riser-mtb-handlebar/ ]these[/url] at 26" for £25.

Damn. You're right of course but I have a suspicion that the description is wrong. The newer models seem to be 680mm. The description also says "Race Face has taken their successful Deus bar, lowered it, made it wider". Wider? How narrow was it!? *crosses fingers*

Still not promising anything, but in the Q&A section a Wiggle employee (WiggleJames) says "A: The full length of the bar is 680 mm."

Just got a pair of those orange ones myself from wiggle myself. A great deal. But on an orange coloured bike.
