Congrats Angus Does she ride proper now?

[DownhillingKing]

looks good like the pedal

[Capricorn]

what are those? DMRs? wellgos?

[Capricorn]

been meaning to ask y'all: what size h-bars y'all riding with? I'm gunning for some Spank 777s or Boobars: something wider than I currently have. Also think the white bar is too pimp, so going black instead.

[DownhillingKing]

Capricorn if you sell the truvativ bars I call 1st dibs!!!

[Capricorn]

?

I was gonna stick it on the Giant, but if I sell, probably R400 including that white Holzfeller stem that Jason didn't want.

If the barz are the holzfeller WC then I will take them

[Capricorn]

it's not the WC bar, it's this one.

 

Looking at the specs on CRC, I really dont see the difference with the non-WC. It's not important in my book, but maybe clue me up?

[DownhillingKing]

okay it fine will still take them when can I collect

[Capricorn]

off the SRAM spec sheet, the only difference between my bar and the WC edition is the weight: WC is 30g lighter.

[DownhillingKing]

It fine it a 50g dif to the monkey lite bars but it fine I still want them when can I get them

[Capricorn]

Here is a very interesting article on Direct Mounted (DM) stems and the different materials used. Granted, it's a fairly one-sided presentation of fact from one of many manufacturers, but it's very insightful from a technical perspect. Made me check which material my DM stem (sunline DM for ?Marzo 888) is made from.. and i cant find info on it

[DownhillingKing]

Cap when can I get  the Bars

[Capricorn]

when i get the replacement. Which one y'all reckon i should take: truvativ Boobar or Spank 777 (black)?

[DownhillingKing]

777
