Watson© Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Hey... what's the Brisa Elite Stems clamp size... is it 26.8mm or 31.8mm?? I want to get a set of the Zoo! riser bars as the Brisa bars are starting to kill my wrists... they are begining to hurt everytime I go out on my bike now :blink: So if it's 31.8mm that's great as I don't need to splash out on more money for a new stem.

Fishwog Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 It's neither, 28.6mm You can only run Brisa bars with the stem, you will need a new stem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
froggy Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 (edited) 31.8mm I think http://selectbikes.com/shop/description.php?prodid=32 Edited March 9, 2005 by Adamm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScotchDave Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 There's three sizes: 25.4 (one inch), 28.6 and 31.8 I have a set of tioga risers you could have in 28.6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janson Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Or get some try-all/Easton bars and shim them up? Because both those bars are 25.4 mm. Easton ea70 > *, btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watson© Posted March 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 But I wont the Zoo! bars :) HA! ( me being picky :turned: ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janson Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Just 'cos they're zoo, or does the geometry suit your wrists/arms better than the Brisa? I used EA70. Then switched to tryall for some extra width. I'm now back on EA70, because they're lot more comfortable. Not as triasy, but meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watson© Posted March 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Just 'cos they're zoo, or does the geometry suit your wrists/arms better than the Brisa? ← Suits my wrists better... dosn't hurt when I ride bars like them... feel more comfortable with them compared to the Brisa's :turned: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Drewery Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Bummer... I'll need to buy a new stem too now... boooo!!!! :turned: ← I would recommend buying both the bar and stem together, theyre a sweet combo. I went from brisa elite bar and stem to the zoo's and they feel much better because of the shape :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomm Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 hey janson - never complain about my sperrin again......... triasy or is that sweedish. ← Is English your second language? And um, bars. Is it worth going for the Onza carbon ones over the Zoo! ones? They're both similar weights (The Zoo are wider, but slightly heavier, non?). I've had Monty bars for ages, but they're realtively narrow in terms of trials bars, I was thinking maybe I should splash out on some newer, wider, riser ish bars? So yeah, what do people think?

Fishwog Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 Get the Onza CF risers!!!!! I run Pazzaz (which I believe ARE Onza risers, but with a different name) and changed from Echo trials bars, and I absolutely love them, and so does everyone else who's been on my bike (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigman Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 I agree with Sam on this, as will alot of other people, the Onza carbon bars are the shiznit, i changed to them when my brisas were hurting my wrists, and will never turn back from them, awsome bars, super light, yet still uber strong, only thing is the price, at £53 they are abit pricey, although i got mine new for £30 hehe Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartridge Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 at £53 they are abit pricey ← I dunno really, compare them with other Carbon fibre bars, and they seem cheap, or at least on the money. Awesome bars, had mine for ages now, lots of twatting on rocks, still going strong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janson Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 £53 is cheap as chips. Carbocomp 100% carbon flats were £120 a pop... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watson© Posted March 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Yeah I was considering the Zoo's or the Onza's but I don't know... I'm hopefully getting a job in Pizza Hut so money wont really be a problem... so what you think I should get guys?? im leaning more over to the Onza's though ;) (Y) Watson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScotchDave Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Onza's you can try mine next time we ride, they're the same as the pazzaz I had last time, I love them, (Y)(Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
