I find the higher ones are easier to pull bunny hops and wheelies where as the lower bars get you over the front more aggressively for some fast DH!

I have the 1" on my double and the 1/2" on the Rune but Im thinking for me the 1" would be nice its not that high.
The 1/2" feels really low at first so I put extra spacers under my stem!
But they are nice for sure!
very light and very stiff for me.
I tried some of my friends nukeproof at the same length and they felt very soft for my big stature! hhhahhahhahahah

Yes, the answer starts at 780mm which was to long for me so I used the lines to cut them down to 760mm, now they feel great!

I have new bars now!
My old ones were easton havocs 711mm on both my banshee and double but recently changed both to the answer 780mm. On the banshee rune I have the low rise and on the double the high rise!
Do you want new bars?
