El Cristoff Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 Hi, I'm wanting to start 24", but i have no idea about bars and stem setups for a 24" rig.I have some Dmr Wingbars, and they feel nice with a nice rise on them, will these surfice?Also, if they will, i'll need a non-oversized stem to fit them, does anyone know of any good ones?Thanks for your time, all feedback would be greatly apreciated x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom_ Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 youl want somthing with 2inch+ rise and then a medium/short stem with a little bit of rise and then a fair few stackers.On my 24 I ran some gusset open prison bars (3inch rise) with a kore stem which I would guess was about 90-100mm with about 10 degree rise, basically a higher front makes for easier hopping....

Matthew62 Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 As you know i run a Titec RIP 3D stem on my 24'' in 105mmx10 with a 15mm stacker. Took the monty ti risers off today and have ordered some Deity bars...should be an awesome combo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Cristoff Posted May 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 Yeah, i was looking at the deity bars, they look lush really beefy loldo you think deity bars and simtra stem sounds ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew62 Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 (edited) Is the simtra stem 130x15? The rise sounds fine with the deity's, nice and high, but it is a bit long. You having no luck finding a titec anywhere?Just seen its 115mm, should be good!! Not too long, but enough for control. Give it a go, if yo got the cash.Check out the FSA OS's too, rane of lengths, and 6 degress wont be too bad with Deity's....both combos are a compromise.

Brian Bleech Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 Personally I would run one of the below stems, with the deity bars. That said the wingbars are nice bars too.World forcegusset I run a roox stem (the same geo as the gusset) with 23mm of stackers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 I'm running the Simtra stem at the moment and have been getting on really well with it. However, am going to try a 90x20deg Easton EA50 stem just so I have something to compare to... will report back once I've used it for a while! Edit: run with Easton EA30 high rise bars.

Heatsink Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 youl want somthing with 2inch+ rise and then a medium/short stem with a little bit of rise and then a fair few stackers.On my 24 I ran some gusset open prison bars (3inch rise) with a kore stem which I would guess was about 90-100mm with about 10 degree rise, basically a higher front makes for easier hopping....Good advice from Tom ^^ Stem wise, I'm running an old black 100mm KORE stem. The white logo can be scratched off for a stealthy look which is nice. The whole stem has clean lines, and 3 bar clamp bolts. For looks why not consider whether black/white/silver is best to match your intended fork and frame (I only have black forks so it's black forks/stem/bars that I'm going with), plus I think the tube shaped stems go better with the frame tubing rather than the rectangular ones (eg. World Force). For strength under trials conditions I would side-step the ones with a 2 bolt bar clamp and instead go for a 3 or 4 bolt version.Looking at CRC, if I was buying I'd be happy with some of the stems around 80-100mm for as low as £10-£15 like the KORE, Azonic, Titec ones. I've got bars with a 25.4mm (1 inch) clamp.CRC Stems by priceOn the bars front, that's a harder one to choose. A huge choice of apprantly very similar looking items. From the thumbnails on CRC it's hard to tell the difference between bars. Pick them on length, rise, colour, brand, clamp size. I'd be tempted to avoid the £15 bars though from experience! Maybe aim at a reputable brand around £25-£30. Stems very rarely break so I'm not fussed about the names stamped on the side of these, but bars on the other hand I would be happy to spend abit more on!Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Owen. Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 I have a Titec stem for sale, which feels nice on 24's http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....howtopic=119759Also, like others have said, a nice set of about 2" + risers with about 27ish" wide. Azonic bars are surposed to be the dog's! I have also learnt to have risers dead upright, not tilted forward like you might do on a 20 or 26" trials bike! I found it much easier to maual and stuff with them like that. Owen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 i might be getting a zoot soon, and i think ill be using a 95 x 20* kore stem with answer pro-taper bars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaceman Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 I run a black market 3'' bar, and black market stem (the older model 50mm x 12 degree rise, new models have no rise)Heard from my friends that the bar is very flexy, but I can't seem to feel it yet. Looking forward for the 2'' deity too.I use a really short 50mm stem cos I'm into more streety moves, will try like 70mm someday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
