Think I’m probably going to have to bite the bullet and accept for the second time in a very short riding career, I have cut my bars too short! 😳
The ones on my ss feel perfect at 660mm though, so I’d like to get some that width. I figure it’ll be nice to have the same width on both bikes too.
So choices are the obvious EA70 or Deus (mk 3!), however I keep being strangely drawn to carbon bars – especially now o/s low rise options seem fairly common.
A few people have got some in sales so they’d probably only cost about £20-25 more than alloy ones, but are they worth it? Yes, they’re a bit lighter, but do they make any comfort difference if you’re running a suss fork?
If they are worth it, does anyone know what the Richey wcs carbon risers are like? Merlin have them half-price. Which others are good value at the moment too do you reckon?
Oh and yes, I am a bit of weight weenie! But then, at 7.5 stone I reckon I can get away with it!
Any advice would be very welcome – cheers!
