Upgrade to carbon

[MTB_Roadie]

KCNC Alu stuff. Cheaper and lighter than any Carbon stuff. My whole cockpit is KCNC Alu, only seatpost is carbon (but it came with the frame), all clamps and skewers also KCNC.

Strong and durable (but handlebar does flex a bit when sprinting with your hands in the drops.)

 

Until it snaps!! I seen some KCNC products snap before and boy was it funny when their super light stem just gave away....i'd rather add the 50g than pick my teeth up in the road.

 

I believe when it comes to handlebars, stems and seatposts get something which will actually last and not break off...even if it is to add the 100g extra

And I have seen Carbon bars, seatpost and even frames snap crackle and pop without warning.....

And these were some of the popular brand names.

Okay...have u ever seen this happen to a SRAM or Shimano crank?

 

Frames will always crack...but you will never just see something snap like that.
