I grabbed Tom's (atv four play) boys handle bars and I am impressed with the amount of give. Should save alot of wrists. I've never handled the Flexx bars. Four plays are less money too!

The Four Play are less money since Flexx raised their prices recently....nice features and quality for sure.

I don't know if either are good for a 50


The bars are big and you have to push a quad to get any use out of this add on.

I think there may be better spent dollars...like shocks



On a bigger mini I think it may be a worthwhile investment, but on a 50 it may not provide a great ROI.

Hey Gary, I think you know this but the handle bars can be cut down to width to fit the rider's preference. Also, the resistance can be adjusted way softer for little riders. When we ship them there are set at a medium setting.
For my kid... which weighs only 50# he wants them really soft and cut down to 29".

V Man--Solid product for sure....I actually sold a set for an Apex 90 this morning when they called for Flexx bars

i think that the flex bars work great,my kid seems to ride with really loose hands and i think the bars enable him to do that and we race some pretty tough conditions (worcs races).I cut them down 1 inch and have them on a 50 and 70

The fourplay are designed for the minis, and offer way more adjustment, vs the flexx which is not designed for the minis, and your only adjustment is switching out a chunk of rubber. I have one of each on two different bikes, and there is no comparison in my opinion.

We took off the Flexx bars on Caden's DRX50 and installed Soft Bars which we cut down to about 29". He could definately tell the difference and they worked well for him the first time he used them in an XC race when he hit some trees pretty hard.
