First edition i guess? They are about 1,5mm thick at end of the bar, 2nd bars are at least 2,5mm thick at same place...

Yes, I think it is. My bar is second edition (more layers), first ones snapped easily.

I have used carbon bar about 5 years now without any problems. I Bought it from Sweden (via Matrin Kleivard), it's very strong and it's really FULL carbon. Weight is 170g, wide 740mm. Carbon gives you a much softer feeling at the bike and it's shock absorbing for hands and arms... Pic -> http://www.fintrial.com/images/something/carbonbar.jpg

Sorry You are wrong . I have drilled alex DX32 and 20t bashguard (grinded 100g off). Secret is that i have self made cf-parts in it Tensioner combo -> http://www.fintrial.com/images/parts/hiili...hjuripieni2.jpg

I started when i was 6, now i'm 30

DT Hügi hub's are good for trials (only my opinion). I have rode with DT hub's about 10 years now so i have long experience from them. Freewheel spareparts are cheap (10€ pair) and easy to change without any tools... I change those few times a year just for safety's sake. I like DX32 because grind is lasting much longer (hard aluminium compound) than try-all and it's stroger too.

I drilled mine (21mm) and it's holding well for two years natural riding now. Weight saving was around 100g with those 21mm holes... It's a lot of work but my opinion is that it's worth it. http://www.fintrial.com/images/parts/dx32drill.jpg

Sorry, but i use only real carbonfiber (and i ride BT now). Reason why i did so called covers on my hs33 cylinders is simpy because the paint was gone of them. Cylinders looked ugly so i did something to cover them... Working with carbonfibre is suprisingly easy, i really have to make somekind of guide how to make parts on your own sometimes (in English too).
