What handlebars should I go with...

[damian600]

Im a newbie, and I want to start modding, whats a good handlebar to get?

If money isnt an object check out the fastco flex bars. They are great!

[damian600]

what website sells them?

I would also go with the fasst company handlebars. They absorb everything and they are very comfortable to ride with. Meaning the bars come to you not you having to reach for the bars.


Heres the website......fasstco.com

You can usually pick them up for around $270 shipped.

If thats too much take a look at Pro Taper, or Tag's. Around $60-$80.

I agree with the flexx bars best bar on the market pricey but work, I still have mine since July of 04. If that isn't an option Trailtech, Tag, Renthal, Protaper are all good bars. Depending on the bend you want we have Gold Protapers CR High for $55

Are you running 12 or 14 degree bend? I'm 6'3" and was thinking about getting the 12 degree so Ill have a little farther to reach for the grips.

I run the 12 degree dirtbike and the wife runs 14 degree dirtbike

i am 6'4", I have both 12 and 14 degree, i don't really notice a whole lot of difference between the 2 ergonomically

what i do notice is one set is taller than the other. I bought 1 set last year and 1 set this year through C&D, the last set i bought through C&D is the taller of the 2 sets (and i like the taller set more)

plus the set that is taller has more separation between the bar that goes into the clamps and the rails on top making it easier to tighten the clamp.

i have no idea if the height is relative to the degree of bend, year they were made or some other factor (maybe Colby can answer this if he knows what i am talking about)

but i run a +2 stem plus the taller bars and it is pretty comfortable for my height
