Well worth your money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 you don't need new ones, they creak because of the paint or something like that rubbing on the steam, they should be fine mate As for the bars, yes they are mint, mine have shown no signs of stress. Well worth your money. They're anodized And you can get rid of the creaking by putting some grease around the clamp and doing up the bolts harder. The ZOO bars are really great. Due to their geometry, you can have them at many different angles without them feeling strange. Best bars I've ever had. Got them in my stock now and they're lovely.

BrAd-Tpro Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 Looking at this has made me go and order some. I have been meaning to do it for a while but wasnt sure if it would make a difference! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay@BBT Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 What colour are you going for Brad?My mate has some on his echo stem (mod) and they feel really nice, and we were testing at angles which felt better (at my house). We both decided that if you have them level or slightly back, it really helps with your bunnyhops or just the ability to tug the bars up alot more! Whereas with then tilted forwards, it felt nice to gap as though it encouraged you to lean and force yourself forwards into it alot more!J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials_mad Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 Really good bars as they are a good riser and are wide that gives you more control over your bike. You can get the onza bars but they are not risers (i think) but they are wider if you prefer wide bars.I would buy new zoo bars if i were you as i have found that if you buy second hand then they tend to not be as wide for some reason and the new ones seem wider. Get the gold ones they look awesome (from tartybikes) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abdab. Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 ZOO! Bars are the best bars on the trials market. Especially Dengs new batch of them...the new ones are perfect and are 28.5", they feel great. The old ones did two but there were 29.5"I wheelspun on a drop and landed flat and now mine are bent a little bit but they are strong and I have had them a long time.
