J Trials 31 Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 They both look lovely! Tilt those bars on the Koxx back and start saving for some high risers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll want to roll them a little forward, but not completely straight in the middle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, just start saving for some risers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Trials 31 Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 lol i got cash for bars, i also have about 3 pairs of bars from my dh days will these be ok? after a 2 min play the mods soooooooooooooooo much nicer to ride i think il sell the simtra or swap for a long mod as its not gonna get much use i dont think. and i just spent loads on it too doh!! :$ Might be ok for a while, but I'd defo get some trials specific bars eventually. Nah, don't sell you've already spent some moola on it and you'll eventually learn how to ride it. Maybe just keep swapping parts around till you do like the way it rides. I never really liked how those frames rode for me, so that would be where I started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
