So these bars just got put on my 26 1x9 HT race bike(to replace fsa k-force flats) and after rolling around the parking lot im so far very happy. The 20 mile race this sunday will help decide "should they stay or should they go". The ton of extra sweep feels great so far, and these things are pretty cheap, and made of alloy.

Buy some. Play with them. Love them. Seriously, worth all 2,700 pennies, for sure worth 5,400 pennies if you ask me, but their cheaper than that so buy two sets for two bikes. really a perfect xc bar,sweep felt much more natural and i had no more fatigue from to flat a bar. However one thing i want to try is road wraping the grip area plus around and inside the brake levers for more hand positions, as i fidget when i ride long distances, which on these will also vary the amount of sweep. These are a little wider than my older bars, and i could really notice the extra leverage on climbs, which makes me think i'm going to take my own advice and buy some for my SS as well. I'm very happy with these and especially so for the low cost. 5 of out of 5 honest stars. Thanks Soma~midas's wrists
