easton ea90 and ec90 aero handlebars look hawt plus easton tape so i must be ocp/ocd
and therapy is not helping cuz im looking at an easton seatpost |
I like to keep matching stems, posts, and bars on my bikes. It's a total waste of funds, but creates a more factory look instead of a cobbled parts bike look.

yes ritchey wcs carbon bits
|
Currently on profile designs/fuji. But when I build up my new bike, it will match :)
|
For functionality absolutely not, as many people find the combination of angles and lengths and looks to work better than a paired set. That being said, normally it does look nicer if it is with the stem/hb they are designed for.
Pretty sure my specialized is all specialized stuff but I just put Easton EA70 bars and stem on my giant this past winter. I am glad I went with the set as it does look nicer than anything else I could have picked out. |
Though if you REALLY want the looks, you could always sand the stem/bars/seatpost and give it a new coat of paint.

3T ARX Team and 3T Rotundo Pro

I'm more particular about matching my seatpost and stem. I'm running Thomson post/stem and 3T Rotundo Pro bars. Mismatched stem/post look weird.

This question from a guy who matches his socks by thickness...

since no one has given the op a facepalm, i'll do the honors
http://scienceblogs.com/insolence/facepalm.jpg unless you are a sponsored rider getting freebies, it doesn't matter. that being said, i'll be getting a ritchey stem for my ritchey handlebar. the c-dale c3 handlebar that i'm currently using will then be paired with the cheapest ergo bar i can find for my beater bike |
I've got a wrapped carbon fiber FSA stem and Kestrel carbon fiber bars combo.
|
Bontrager Race lite xxx stem and bars. At least the carbon weave should match.
