Luke Drewery Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Hi, I currently run a zoo bar and stem setup on my onza t-rex frame and they feel awesome, good for everything. However, I have been tempted by the 30" wide onza carbon bars. I like the shape and low weight of them, but does the width make any difference to the way they ride? Also are they strong? I have noticed that riders who go huge run them and praise them such as damon watson. Any feedback would be appreciated. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JIX Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 The zoo's are a real nice shape aswell. Have you cut them down at all? Because arent the zoo risers 29 inches anyway. I have the onza 28 inches and they are really nice, but if I were you I wouldnt change. Look at tunni riding, he goes huge and runs them. I think the zoo bars are strong enough. They both feel really nice, if I were you I would stick with what you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SQuiT-man Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 I have onza carbon risers (28.5 inch), but I'd stick with what you have mate, zoo bars'll be just as good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philking Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 (edited) Onza carbons all the way mate! i have them and i love them, the extra width is ace, it helps loads on technical stuff - more control once you get used to it (which took me one ride). Also, yes they are perfectly strong, they are actually constructed around aluminium, so they will easily take all the abuse.

RicH_87 Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 yeh i'd say get them and i ain't even riden them. i used to have the flat ones, but wanted risers, however i couldn't afford the onza carbon risers so went with zoo. if you've got the cash, there's no better bars to splash it on. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
