Evening all,

looking for some wider bars for my full suss, at the moment they're 680 but ideally I'd like something wider, maybe massively wider so I can cut them down when I find the ideal width.

So does anyone have any recommendations? Don't want to spend a lot, £50 ish and needs to be oversized

Cheers

Get a set of Deity Dirty 30s (760mm) - nice and light, pretty colours and about 50 quid.

Nukeproof Warhead 760s - cut down to 730mm - they fit through the trees but provide serious muscle on the descent.

Can't recomend them enough

Think they're about £40-45

I've just put some Easton Haven carbon bars on mine (a bit out of your budget, but they do alloy ones), not used them yet but they look very nice, weigh nothing, supposed to be stupendously strong, and are the right width for me (711mm).

Well I've just ordered a 760 Warhead from descent-gear was almost swayed by the gusset but the potential lack of cut markings on it was the clincher (I'm just not sure I'll need the full 760).
