[Closed] recommendations for a O/S riser bar and 70mm stem ?

not a big deal but I'm thinking of changing my bars as they a tad narrow, and moving to 31.8mm at the same time.

Thinking maybe EA70 monkeybar and a FSA FR-220 stem

Any xmas bargains out there or alternative suggestions?

Carbon bars worth it?

[I need a 2" rise and prefer a flat-ish bar with about 4deg of upsweep, just for general trail stuff]

Ea70 are superb, i have a Truvativ XR which is 75mm/12degree/31.8.

I needed the same. A riding buddy has [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=19256 ]these[/url] and I really liked them. Super wide but could be cut down. Ended up with a set of those an a Thomson 4x stem.

Decided ea70 wasn't wide enough. Had Carbon bars before, never had an issue with them but not paying £100 for a wide carbon bar!
