patches Posted December 17, 2013 Share there are some closeup shots https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.376300435847459.1073741839.100968596713979&type=1 I see from the pics that it is the Fox 40 RAD... So good on them for that... But the steel spring... seriously don't know why they skimped there. Surely they can afford $150-$200 to put a Ti spring on and make it a more authentic replica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePubSA Posted December 18, 2013 Share Xtra sauce The Minnaarbar is an 808mm wide, 245 gram, full-carbon downhill specific handlebar that is produced and manufactured in Ogden, Utah. The Minnaarbar is an exact replica of the handlebar Greg ran throughout the 2013 World Cup season. There are enough tall riders out there to appreciate an 808 millimeter DH bar that can take a beating under one of the sport's most hard-charging riders. Full-width carbon DH bars made by ENVE and signed off by Minnaar are a credible product, considering that ENVE has been working with the Syndicate for almost a decade. Plus, the Champ is one of the most demanding riders on the circuit when it comes to his kit. The official press release follows: - RChttp://ep1.pinkbike.org/p4pb10424335/p4pb10424335.jpg http://es.pinkbike.org/240/sprt/i/bigquotes.png ENVE continues to push the envelope on what is possible with composites in downhill racing. When we have feedback, ENVE listens and answers by producing the product we need to have a competitive edge. My signature edition downhill bar offers my preferred width, great strength, and a ride quality that is second to none. - Greg Minnaar Edited December 18, 2013 by 2Nutz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stretch Posted December 18, 2013 Share I saw that...808mm....that's wide!...does the replica rock that replica? (On my phone not easy to see) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Omega Man Posted December 18, 2013 Share I saw that...808mm....that's wide!...does the replica rock that replica? (On my phone not easy to see)Yes it does. The STD DH bar from ENVE is 800mm wide and R2500. On that replica I reckon they'll easily sell the 25. I've seen many Eastern Euro cats in Morzine who have the very latest and greatest of everything clearly with way too much money. I reckon they'll sell those easily. I hope Greg gets a portion of the profits. Edited December 18, 2013 by Omega Man ThePubSA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stretch Posted December 18, 2013 Share He will run whatever his sponsor wants. Yes and no..Greg is very demanding in terms of his equipment he rides. In terms of wheel sizes I can't see a sponsor insisting that they ride a 29er or a 650b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Omega Man Posted December 18, 2013 Share Yes and no..Greg is very demanding in terms of his equipment he rides. In terms of wheel sizes I can't see a sponsor insisting that they ride a 29er or a 650bAgree. Especially in DH where the guys are literally risking life & limb. When they had him on supercycling the other day he said they'd tested the bigger wheels. Edited December 18, 2013 by Omega Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe bikes will be either 650b or good ol' 26" and that will be up to the rider to decide, much like the Lappiere & Gstaad-Scott Teams.Same goes for the Enduro World Series, although I do think you'll see the odd 29r making an appearance & the odd podium there.

rouxtjie Posted December 18, 2013 Share Agree. Especially in DH where the guys are literally risking life & limb. When they had him on supercycling the other day he said they'd tested the bigger wheels.Yea, which makes sense...didn't he said the only thing that made him faster were the tyres....which was a risky but he could manage it considering where he knew he could potentially puncture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
