those have rubber bushings that allow bar movement just on the outer bar, suppose to reduce fatigue. But there expensive and i dont want to be a guinee' pig

The rubber bushings make it a little easier on your hands and wrist if you take a bad landing, from what I understand. I've been looking into buying a set. They also will absorb vibration.

are the bars any more durable than any other set, or is it just that rubber bushing that makes the differance!!??

if you bend youne part of them, you can replace just that part, there was a test of them in dirt rider a couple months ago

from what i read they will flex like the picture i made shows, not bending like normal bars. They have pivot points.

guys these bars are sweet.i have a set on my MX quad and love them.you can adjust them on how hard and how soft you want them.like it was said eairler if you wreck and bend or break a piece you can buy just that piece and replace it.the rubber bushings are also replacable.it takes a few rides to get use to them but when u get onto them it makes a big diffrence.when i noticed it the most was pounding through woops and either casing a jump or over shotting a jump.they are expensive.retail is $295 if ur a serious MXer i would highly recomend a set.

I talked to a guy at my last (dirtbike) race, and he had them. He said they are amazing. They soak up all the braking bumps and stuff, and if you flat land, instead of your arms rolling back and your wrists snapping, the bars flex and absorb it. I would think they would make the front end feel spongy, but he swore by them.

yeah proquad_20 they need to give ya some lube or spit on ya or something but like i said it honestly is worth the money.a thing to look at also if i compared these bars to a houser racing wristrester and these bars are much better. a little higher in price but actually help more.i have an anti vibe stem on my bike and with these bars they move forward and downward.with the wristrester for houser it only moves forward.a wristrester cost $235 from houser, so y not spend an extra $60 and have the best. just my opinion.(and i'm not trying to bash houser cause i do run there a-arms,swing-arm and stem)later BILL
