Jake. Posted September 3, 2012 Report Share Posted September 3, 2012 I have crashed into a sharpe rock and made a hole in the carbon bars in the past 5p size They never did snap either I hope that wasn't with the bars I'm using right now.

Mark W Posted September 3, 2012 Report Share Posted September 3, 2012 I guess they're a slightly different kettle of fish in that they only had a small amount of carbon fibre in them, but yeah, carbon bars aren't as weak as some might think they are.

dave33 Posted September 3, 2012 Report Share Posted September 3, 2012 Hands up who's actually snapped a pair of carbon bars personally ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poweredbypies Posted September 3, 2012 Report Share Posted September 3, 2012 Whilst no a trials rider myself I bought a pair of second hand carbon bars and they feel so much stronger than any other bars I have owned. Mine were a bit flaky where the clamp goes but it was just a thick layer of lacquer before it got anywhere near the actual carbon. I was hesitant about them before but deffo trust them now.
