Falco Posted March 2, 2017 Share I'd happily take a hacksaw to my handlebars if I could move to the "nanny state". I suspect most saffers on the hub will agree, even though the cool kids won't admit it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marko35s Posted March 2, 2017 Share They have less than 10% of our annual road death toll and you are saying their laws don't help? Does not look like all the nanny state laws help save lives... http://www.huffingtonpost.com.au/2016/12/16/three-dead-in-horror-24-hours-on-nations-roads/ Strange, I thought if people stopped at red lights people would respect cyclists and stop the carnage.

I suspect most saffers on the hub will agree, even though the cool kids won't admit it. I'd love to visit for a short while. Surf the gold coast. But that's it.Australia's particular brand of culture never really appealed to me. I really should go too. So much family in Sydney.Whenever they're in SA they moan about us not visiting them.But if I ever have the opportunity to go visit.I'd probably choose to go somewhere else...

Patchelicious Posted March 2, 2017 Share We are a funny bunch. We all scream that we want stricter rules that need to be enforced. Then we laugh at those who do it. I would gladly sacrifice 20mm on my MTB handle bars in exchange for the law enforcement that they have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big_mtn Posted March 2, 2017 Share So, what's the danger with wide bars on MTB's riding offroad trails, if any?Is this law restricted to public roads perhaps? Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongDonkey Posted March 2, 2017 Share I need my extra 60, or 80 mm cant remember, on my handle bars.I am kinda an outsized guy , now i gotta ride a MTB in Aus that has aero width roadbike bars. Think the Aussies are using it to mess with imports. Australia first........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted March 2, 2017 Share Is this not just a restriction on the sale of new bikes with bars of >700mm? IE they need to come stock with those, but they can be changed out afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
