Submitted by Eric a Recreational Rider

Date Reviewed: February 3, 2008

Strengths:    Beautiful finish and look.

Weaknesses:    Too flexy for a strong rider who likes to jump out of the saddle.

Bottom Line:

Bought these bars for the build up on my Independent Fabrication Crown Jewel. The bars are light and spiffy looking matched with a Ritchey carbon stem. The problem is the flex when standing in a climb or sprinting. You can literally twist these bars and get significant flex when just standing over your bike. Not a good bar for anyone who likes to jump out of the saddle and have a go at a sprint. I replaced the stem with an FSA alloy and the bar with a Specialized alloy bar and I'm back to rock solid.
