Hi,
am running a low to medium rise bar currently and want lower. I have some Flat Trackers but they are too low for general trail riding so want a very low rise, carbon preferrably, STD fit set of bars.

What dyou reccommend?

Ritchey 10 degree bars.

Feel like a riser but are completely flat, keeping your front end lower.

I've got some on my Obed at the mo and really like them 8)

They do a few at different price levels.

Yeh, I'm guessing they'll be like the Flat Trackers, they feel good for racing but too low as I said for gnarly steep stuff.

The ones I've got a 660mm width and are pretty cool to ride with.

One of my friends has got some Race Face lower risers that he swears by 8)

Think there called Next SL.

I just bought some EA30 low rise O/S from Merlin, £17.99 and I must say they are lovely for the money.

The standard fit instead of OS makes it tricky or I'd suggest RaceFace Sixc carbon bars 😕
