bing Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 I have took the plunge and bought a set of nearly new try all carbons, the new version with the white logo. Is there anything special I need to do when installing them, my stem has a 4 bolt clamp so that's not an issue. Currently running viz pro 700's.

Yorkshire Dale Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 Oh aye. What's wrong wi carbons like shag? Nothing really, to be honest i thing there a waste of money for the few grams you save and iv seen people that dont exactly go big or land heavy break them? Also the only people i can see benefitting from them are world riders where grams do count. Plus i seem to remember a while back u dissing them either on here or on the facebook page cos of the snappege reason so its weird u would get a set knowing this? i know people are running sets they have had a while but i do think they are very hit and miss and you could get a good set or a shit set thats weak. my opinion anyway and i no that opinions are like arseholes. everyone has one and everyone elses stinks haha!

bing Posted January 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 I may have mocked in the past. These were simply too good a price to turn down, got them off tom. I wanted some new bars anyway, as my viz bars are a bit narrow, and was gonna buy some brand new Tt high risers when these came up. I'm not going big, and I'm not a basher, and I don't run a silly upside down bar angle so they should be ok. I'm going comps this year anyway so I'm trying to do a bit of weight saving. Next stop is me lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCOTTY___ Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 I have took the plunge and bought a set of nearly new try all carbons, the new version with the white logo. Is there anything special I need to do when installing them, my stem has a 4 bolt clamp so that's not an issue. Currently running viz pro 700's. Thats an additional cost by the way. u could ask SCOTTY (craig) if u can borrow his torpue wrench then when u have done have a little play with his penis too I bought a small Topeak torque wrench to install mine. Use the same settings that the Trial Tech carbon bars need to keep them under warrenty. 5N/M for Stem clamp and 4N/M for brake levers. Also got myself some carbon fibre installation paste to help reduce stress but increase the friction or whatever it does. Just thought if i was paying all that ££ for the bars i wanted to look after them, each to there own. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bing Posted January 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 What do you mean additional cost Craig lad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 (edited) At halfords (shame) we have a handheld wrench that's calibrated to 5nm and comes with 5mm and 4mm hex heads. Would be useful to have out on a ride if you need to move your bars, so you still maintain the warranty and don't have to carry a huge torque wrench. That one^ Edited January 8, 2014 by DrStix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that for when dan plays with your penis? I've heard it relaxes you and increases friction too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
