Planning a new build Soul. Stem will be Thomson, probs 80mm. Currently using Easton alloy monkey bars, which will be getting sold with bike. What's good these days ? Don't want silly wide or silly price ๐Ÿ˜†

Just picked up some Answer Pro Taper 780 Carbon. They are jolly nice!

Fatbar lite are good at 740 wide but only 269g...only one colour and unlikely to match your Soul.

I've got 720 ragley risers which have been great (were really cheap from crc too) and 747 spank subrosa (not used on my Soul yet)

I moved from EA70 to Haven - bob on for width, shape and price. Not too heavy either.

Have a look at the Mt Zoom ones. Strong, light, reasonably priced.
