Errrgh, do you like your handlebars.
I wouldn't buy either of the two... but you haven't told me any of your needs or anything.
I agree with Fitrider 921, tell us your needs and all.
nevermind about the cranks...i would have to buy an FMF square tapered spindle for $70...which sucks...i kinda like my bars but they're Mongoose that i put on my DYNO...and i looked on Dan's Comp and they only have Euro bb in square tapered..and i pretty much only race
I thought you just bought the industry cranks?
no i didnt buy them yet...i was just looking around a little more
Those cranks will go on just about any square tapered BB, like a Shimano or whatever (just $25 for a euro BB). BUT, I had a set of the ISIS ones on my MTB, and they got toasted after 3 months. Very sucky.
how bout saving up for somthing that doesnt suck?

You are very blatant.
Ok, seeing you decided aginst the cranks. Lets look at the bars.
6.5 inch rise is SMALL...even for raceing(it is a cruiser bar). If your on a limited buget as I assume you are. Take a look on DANS for some bars like Haro's. Atleast they have a decent rise.

the thing is i'm trying to make my bike lighter and better and i kno a few of my friends who have FMF powermoto bars and i like them...i'm pretty sure they have pros too...also i'm pretty small...what if i get the pro xl?
My friend has Haro Slims on his Haro Group 20 there really nice
Haro slims.
i basically want the lightest bars i can get though

i've seen them before...they're too small and really expensive
I saw the FMF Powermotos or whatever there called...I like those, just get the next size up,
Eastern titanium bars?
too much money...nice but expensive

Because they are correct. Change that "D" to "T" unless you have useful advise. I told him a fact, and he indicated that I was correct(for him anyway).
So, enjoy your "i hate this thread for two reasons.

He knows what he's talking about because he actually rides and doesn't bother people a lot younger than him all day to get a few laughs for himself. Leave him alone Mr. Know-it-all.
Raise your hand if you like Matrix.
no one raise their hand because they were to busy running out of the room before the "washed up racer hippy" (inside joke about this guy me and kinetik know) started posting.
ps. Matrix - you spelled "knowledge" wrong
Bike Forums: Episode V: The Prozakk Strikes Back?
in this episode he teams of with Darin and the two people over 50 attack.

Beringer Lights allow for full x-up clickage without the risk of banging your knees on the wide "D". See photo (below) for evidence.

bro, unless I missed alot. mude bashed him. but s&m bars are the samrt idea.

That's besides the point. The point of this is so people can say "oh, CMcMahon, that is really clicked... I think I'm going to call up Tom over at Empire and order a pair of Beringer Lights right now."
Get with it. (512) 474-4269. You still have an hour and a half before they close.

Good sales pitch.

then why do you even want new bars?
You missed a lot.
more reading and seems mude is the one who is harrassing people. he made a post not to listin to this matrix guy. but matrix was right 100% in his post. so is mude saying to let the guy screw up his parts by not listening to matrix.
drama why don't people act their age.

Why don't people realize that there is something called grammar and that there are question marks at the end of questions?
then why do you even want new bars?
to make my bike lighter and i don't like my bars all that much
to make my bike lighter and i don't like my bars all that much
but you're not even doing tricks... or pretty much anything for that matter
but you're not even doing tricks... or pretty much anything for that matter
i race though so i want lighter and better bars than what i have
Judging by the fact that his name is "minichamp31", I'm assuming that he's racing Mini/Micro-size BMX bikes. So, he's probably spending some X-Mas cash or something.
Regardless: Beringer Lights. You'll grow into them, even if you're only four feet tall right now.

sort of true with the Christmas money...but i think i'm racing a pro size bike...and i'm like 5 feet tall
More likely an Expert-sized bike than Pro-sized one, then, unless you have a frame that's way longer than you need, but whatever.
