$60.00 | | Strengths: | Awesome looks, nothing else on the market comes close. Great feel for the road - not too rigid, not too soft, while being extremely sturdy. Decent weight (250ish grams) for a riser, not stupidly light, but I wouldn't trust a sub-200gm riser anyway. | | Weaknesses: | Price? But it's good value, so I guess it's worth it; besides, I got it cheap. Unfortunately it's out of production, or at least no longer imported to my part of the world. | | Similar Products Used: | A bunch, but nothing as nice. | | Bike Setup: | Merlin E-Stay Ti Suspension '93, full XTR. | | Bottom Line: | I don't know if it's still available where you are, but if it is, you want this handlebar. A true head-turner, with colour and finishing far superior to any other bar you'll find out there (they're all black these days - bleah), and happily with performance to match, in the true Easton tradition.
Goes perfectly with my all-titanium bike - I couldn't find a comparable titanium riser bar, certainly not in the price range. Works and looks so good I got a 2nd set off eBay, just in case! | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: October 5, 2002 | | Duration Product Used: | 1 Year | | Strengths: | light, looks nice | | Weaknesses: | cuz its so lightweight the bar is broken now. and i don´t ride my bike hard... too expensive | | Similar Products Used: | noname alloy riser, flat bars | | Bike Setup: | scott xc hardtail, dirtjumper2, hussefelt, xt (crap) | | Bottom Line: | this bar is for xc riding only. if you want to ride more extreme don´t buy it. i don´t trust in lightweigt things any more... a handlebar must be stronger.

$75.00 | | Purchased At: | Colorado Cyclist | | Strengths: | Stiff & strong. Great feel and Vibration dampening. The bend is very comfortable. | | Weaknesses: | None | | Bike Setup: | Turner XCE | | Bottom Line: | The Scandium bars are strong and stiff yet they absorb vibration very well. The bars feel right in all conditions and are very comfortable on long rides. I recommend these bars for strong,large 200+ pound riders. Therew are lighter bars but at 250gr I can't find a stronger bar. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
