riser bars
 

it's getting really hard to find low priced/good quality risers anymore : (

So no one is importing the Nitto risers anymore?

Is it?

Jenson USA has the Profile FR risers on sale for $12. I just picked one up.

got to your lbs. ask if they have any take offs or bargin bins. that's how i got both of the bars i ride...

EDIT: they were both free this way.

same here, i love free bars

step 1: find dumpstered toys 'r' us mountain bike
step 2: remove risers
step 3: chop
step 4: ????
step 5: PROFIT!!!

yeah, i got 2.

nycbikes.com has some pretty cheap

I got mine for like $15. I'm sick of risers... bullhorns/drops ftw.

i mean name brand stuff! not some crap off a $89. huffy mountain bike.

eGay

why do they have to be name brand? not being a dick, just wondering. by the time you cut them down, and put on grips, your logos will be close to being covered up. perfomance wise, my freebees have held up to months of hard abuse. just curious.

name brand assures quality, i'm assuming :/

Is there a label wh0re in your life who is influencing your purchasing decisions? A friend? Sibling? Parent?


.....is it you?

its just that when you get tired of your old gear, ppl relate to name brand stuff in ads , hence making it easier to unload.

Half of 'name brand' stuff like bars and brakes are just rebaged OEM stuff anyway. If you're gonna worry about name brand, risers should be the last thing you worry about.

Its true really.
I have a set of Nitto risers and they flex quite a bit.
Theyre gold anodized though so thats all that matters. :)

deathhare, are you femme?

nope

You're actually worried that cheap-o $10 riser bars won't retain their resale value, yet the depreciation on name-brand bars would almost certainly be greater than $10.

easton EA30 - 29.99 bargain.

not worried! i can afford to chuck stuff in the river if don't sell : )

Wald to the rescue. I love these bars. Cheap, dumb chrome steel. Not much rise, but a nice bend. Not terribly wide, either.

But then again, I have cut up some cheap Huffy bars for use, too. I'm no snob. If it works, it works.

oh tell me where plz..
