Have their stem and handlebar on one of my bikes bought cheap in a crc sale. Think they are excellent, great finish, nothing not to like.

I've only really used their bars, which are very good.

Their bars are good, had a set a few years ago and would get another one without hesitation

Owned by Hayes brakes. Along with Manitou, Sun Ringle, and Wheelsmith. I'd have no issue buying from them.

They are one of the original names of mtb, brought us such classics as the acutrax fork, atac stem and the hyperlite bars.

I love their handlebars. The shape is a personal thing but the finish is second to none.

Saw a bike with Manitou forks on it last night, made me realise how long it's been since they were a big player (i.e. before they went to SPV dampers which died quickly and their replacement was a sealed non user serviceable cartridge, way to instil confidence in your products!)

As for answer, loved their bars, and it's pretty hard to mess up a seatpost!
