Tall_Rob Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 Yes they are Deng products... Zoo riser to be precise but they are 2 years old.I hadn't done the clamps up too tight on the lever but from the way they've snapped... it shows different.I'm lucky that i came away with wrist ache and a few marks on my hand.Will definitely gets those bars again... they've been mint.Poor Thinkbikes bike.Tis true... they do get ridden well lolRob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomm Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Before you stick the new bars on, it might be worth filing off any sharp edges on that brake lever clamp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Arnold Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Before you stick the new bars on, it might be worth filing off any sharp edges on that brake lever clamp.doubt that's going to make any difference to be honest! if the lever isnt too tight then the only force going throuh the bars at that point is when you're braking.2 years is good for a set of bars imo! check the stem clamp area, i bet there are cracks mine were cracked after a year..

basher Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Like people said think the clamp was to tight. You should be able to move the lever when you put abit of weight on it so that when you fall it doesnt snap the lever and moves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
