bagre15 Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 I was browsing in echobike.com when I found that Echo SL bars have 10º upsweep and 10º backsweep. Is this a new model of SL bars? Since the ones I got are 8º up and 4º back I would be cool if the new SL bars came with this geomtry, so the would ride like trialtech ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) Yes, the new ones are completely different, really comfortable and with more rise than the Trialtechs. The only problem is that the tubing has a lot of odd bumps on the bends which somehow I don't believe are there to increase strength but because the manufacturing process just isn't as sophisticated as with other bars. Could be completely wrong though, that's just my observation. edit: actually, the bumps don't seem random. Perhaps they're there for a reason.
