Looking to eliminate lower back pain while riding the full rigid ToP. Currently on Diabolus risers, 1.5" and a zero rise Kore stem. Was looking at leaving the stem and going to a 3" rise bar. The fork is a DMR trailblade in white so was looking at the Wingbar but its out of stock everywhere. Can't find a place to buy Nem-Pro's Folsom bar, 2.6". Looked at the bada-bing bar from Black Market and the NS Jalapeno, not available in white. I'm 6'3" and with the low headset stack and rigid fork the bars are just too low.
Any other bars I should consider and why? Also like the look of Diety bars. I'm a big guy and crash fairly often so need a strong bar. What you got?

If i were you i would go with a 3 inch rise blk mrkt bada bing bar, unless you want an atomlab pimp 3 inch rise bar. those are legit too. I personally dont like 3 inch rise bars, but some of my friends have them and they seem to feel nice.

you looking for a 3" aluminum bar? or are you gonna change your stem too?
3" bars are generally steel and have a different clamp diameter size...

Blackmarket's 3" rise bars are for 25.4 clamp area.

I just got a set of the badaBoom bars in 3" x 25.4, they felt a bit big from my 2.75 NS Jalapeno's, but I was bunny hopping higher. Will see this week how they run on the trails. They also felt a little flexy.

do not run aluminum bars and a rigid fork! the nem pro's you can snag off ebay

id get blk market bada bingss in whitee.

hah not only cuz i run them but theyre are the nicest bars ive ridden with.
and they got the little pin up girl on em :biggrin:

If you like some backsweep, you could go with the 3" Chase bars. You could probably find them for cheap somewhere. I dig em.

Brad usually deals direct for his products so send nempro an email or check on eBay like previously stated.

Thanks for all the input. Local consensus is Bada Bings and it appears you guys like them also. I will look for Nem-Pro on ebay or e-mail Brad, I like the custom bar approach. Not a big Atomlab fan. I agree no aluminum bars with the rigid fork. A little flex in the bar would be good. Thanks again!

...I will look for Nem-Pro on ebay or e-mail Brad, I like the custom bar approach...

as long as you don't need the bars for about 8 months, you should be golden...

 

[brycexlighthall]

I like the custom bar approach.

Not really custom. Just small batches, bad service.

If you could live with Black instead of white.. I think you should click the link in my signature...

Stay away from BadaBings with rigids. They flex alot even with sus!

I've got NemPro Street bars. They're fantastic, other than the fact that they're bent. When I can get my **** together they'll be sent to Brad for warranty.

His rep here's far from stellar, but all dealings I've had with him haven't been anything out of the ordinary.

i have the atom lab pimp 3" and there great, they dont flex, there cheep and the only downside is there heavy but the weights not too bad
