Matthew62 Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 Yeah the Montys are lovely, bunnyhoptastic and nice for your more conformist trials moves. I extended mine to 29.5 inches so still a fairly appropriate length, didn't want to overdo it, but it does make the world of differance.

basher Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 Yeah montys,i dont think they need extending on mod though they seem nice at that width. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NVWOCI WVS Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 monty pr bars i run them at the normal length on stock and used to have them normal length on a mod. best ever bars but feel shit with a t-master stem as theyre far too high so i'd recomend a low stem with monty bars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omgnoseat Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 Might be a stupid question, but what is the benefit of extending them?I guess it would be more control, but wouldn't it affect your abillity to spin or something..?

Matthew62 Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 I extended mine because i am quite broad it felt a lot more comfortable with them at 29.5, it felt like my chest was really closed with them at standard width, but with them wider i felt a lot more free and it was a lot more comfortable on my shoulders, i didn't feel cramped or closed in, whereas i did before. Although from standard length to 29.5 inches is only quite a small extension it makes the differance, my friend asked me the same question the other day and i took the extensions out and showed him the position of my body compared to how it ws when the bars were extended and he could see how it helped - its just a feel thing, if you extend them you should extend them to what feels right and comfortable, it will make more sense when you have the bars, you'll soon know what width feels right.Extending them doesnt really compromise your spinning ability, i changed from narrower bars to extended montys and i can spin much more effortlessly now, its more down to the rise and sweep as opposed to the width.If you are quite small or nt that broad in the shoulders you may not need to extend the bars at all....see what worsk for you.
