i don't know if you saw how wide my bars are in my previous post, and i don't necessarily love how they look, but i'm afraid that if cut them then i'll regret it since it would seem uncomfortable going up hills and sprinting and such. i mean, for looks i would prefer to cut them narrower (yes, i do care what my bike looks like, sorry), but it doesn't seem too practical.
sucks for climbing. I have mine cut to 40cm but man I can throw my leg over with ease and they look cool......... but I'm not sure if wider is going to make it that much easier to climb I alway wish I had bar ends or bull horns for climbing.....form ,not function....thats my motto!
