Specialized 09 Rockhopper Recall

They are replacing the handle bars. Told me not to ride it, and get it back to them for new handle bars ASAP.

I took mine to the LBS they replaced them with Bontragers that lack the back sweep the stock handlebars had...should I take it back to the LBS and ask for something with the same sweep?

I would. If it's not comfortable for you like the other one was.

The LBS said it'd be a couple weeks before they could get a more accurate replacement, as in one directly from Specialized. So for a couple weeks I'm supposed to go with the bontrager handlebar that lacks the backsweep that I found comfortable on the stock bar.
