I assure you that whatever trail it is that you think you are going to be hitting every tree, folks are riding 750mm bars on it without issue.
Well, son, I been crushing gnarly, b****in' single track since the late 80s on bars that could double as a straw in my post ride mai thai they're so narrow. So I'm down w/ moisture: don't get these giant 'surf board' bars. I guess you need extra stability to make up for other defects in your skillz. and suspension? what's that?
