Looking for a set of wide bars, don't require more than 750mm though, budget of circa £50. What offers best value for performance?
Nukeproof warheads £44 at CRC.
I like the shape and feel of Sunline V1's. They're also impressively light for a wide bar.

+1 on Sunline V1s. Just fitted them to my Alpine 160 and really like them.
mactheknife - 700mm isn't realy wide these days?
I'm using 745mm Sunline V1's and 760mm Nukeproof Warheads......both are excellent.
Sunline or Renthal
700mm? Wide? LOL.
My 710mm Gravitys are too narrow... Need to get another set of NPs which are superb.
Warheads here too, 760mm on my 160, and they're perfect 😉
Funn fatboys
Went from Easton Monkey Bars (685) to Sunline V1 (711) to Chromag Fubars (730) and have settled with Sunline V1 (745). All good bars but love the 745, think they are perfect for me at 5ft 10.
Have ridden with Nukeproof Warheads and personally found them a great fit
Looks like the NP Warheads are a good option. What about the Easton Havoc bars?
Another sunline user here, would happily recommend them.
I run both sunline v1 745's in a 19mm rise and easton havocs, both are a similar shape and highly recommend either of them. The Renthals seem flavour of the month though so may be worth a look - may be out of your budget though.
Never heard much about renthal, are they a new company?
Renthal are big in the trial and motocross world. Well respected and just moved into the mtb arena.
I like my EA70s 685mm and 9deg sweep. About £35 or so I think.
I currently have Easton EA50 I think, I'm relatively small (5'8") so may not require a really wide bar. Would I notice an extra inch e.g. 711mm bars or is it not worth the change?

I think they were involved in mtbs years ago, with Pace, no?
i can tell the difference between the 685mm s on my hardtail and the 711 on my Fuel on singletrack.... Wide is nice, but actually its too wide around town....
Titec Hellbent if you can find them

I've got a dark grey frame with mostly black finishing kit on (black wheels, forks, seatpost, stem, grips etc), tempted to go for silver or orange bars. What do you reckon? Anyone got pics of their bikes with different colour bars?
Anyone got any pics?
