Leaning to the Bontrager because it has room to mount my Quad Lock mount. Thoughts? Are Carbon bars worth the money?
So after two rides on the new bars: I can tell a definite difference in the vibrations on the road are noticeably better under the carbon bars than the aluminum bars they replaced. Good solid feel, and comfortable.
