ManxTrialSpaz Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 Just keep it as it is at the moment see if you like them as you can always cut them shorter but can't cut them longer ;) But in my opinion wider bars=more control Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Geary Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 i've allways found that having longer bars is alot more stabler, and you feel alot more in control, but thats my point of view. ben ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simpson Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 Some bars come with a life time warranty and cutting them down voids it, just be carefull, again personall prefrence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 well brs reonly supposed to be as wide as yor shoulders, bu the reason us trials riders have wide bars is due to maing it mre comfortsble on the back wheel etc and wen riding trials in general Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
