There are way too many things wrong with that bike.

Not if he enjoys it.

I was implying to in terms of trends and today's standards.

Instead of big bars he has big dropouts.

What about me?

We are still awaiting your bike check...

This thing better be dialed for all the crap you give everyone else.

Haha. Any sign of the big bar trend diminishing and going back to little bars?

What about you? You are from the UK, are you not?

I haven't done much with my bike at all.

Just because I criticize other people's bikes doesn't mean mine is great. My bike is still mostly stock, although when I get back on it there should be a few upgrades coming, such as pedals and maybe seat/post/clamp.

I give it a few more months. But the thing is...most people get the big bars for the trends, like me (i'm not going to lie) and then realize how much better they are on your back and just in general. I actually like taller bars and i have pretty wide shoulders so they pretty much fit me. But tiny kids getting Slams and not being able to control their bikes is hilarious.


Well we are all awaiting this bike check.

I haven't ridden bars bigger than like 25" on a BMX, but the wide ones on my mountain bike aren't comfortable to me. I have mine cut a little too short, though, going to get new ones sometime this year.

It's all about how broad your shoulders are. If you stick your arms straight out wherever they rest should be where you comfortably grip your bars. And the smallest you should cut them. At least that's my opinion. Mine go to the middle of my Slams.

Wide Mtb bars don't feel right. Wide bmx bars do.

I bought my beringers cheap off ebay and thats why I joined the trend. I needed bars

The bars on my mtb are around 30", nice and wide for DH.

Oh for DH its good, not for hardtail

Might be picking this up soon:

is that wood?

Aluminum?

It's hideous, that's what it is.

It's weird.

It's a DH/Freeride hardtail, built to be as stiff as possible without snapping.
