Check for a harmonica zip tied to the BB first.If your bikes starts to whistle, you have gone too far.
I have been strongly considering getting a dirt bike for a couple years now. It’s looking more tempting now considering a new YZ starts at 7k. I could probably find a newish one for like 5? A new DH bike with usable parts is the same monies. My wife would probably require one also shortly after, and the kiddo…. Starting to feel slippery.I just quit and ride dirbikes now because I don't want to give money to anyone but GG.

Looks like a wrinkle in the fabric, which may be a manufacturing defect, or not, depends in "allowables" it was designed around.You sure it's a crack and not just the carbon underneath the clearcoat?
Yeah that's what it looks like to me also.You sure it's a crack and not just the carbon underneath the clearcoat?
Already ordered (alloy and carbon bars) last night , and have plans for this one...You didn't try to warranty them?
I'd have expected a big guy like you to have found those things far too flexy anyway?Yep, cased pretty hard at silver mountain

LOLAlready ordered another set of carbon
Buddy who does aviation design and molds said the same thing I'm thinking it's a fluke...1 in a million
Gotta think positive Woo....lol ..(yes people i am aware this is a open ended comment for woo to be witty)
I put em on a bike I didn't think I'd hammer down on...and realistically with my weight I shouldn't have taken the HT there...I did look for cracks and other damage on frame.I'd have expected a big guy like you to have found those things far too flexy anyway?
They scared me when we realised we could flex them before even fitting them to a(nother rider's) bike.
Have you seen who sells mtb parts? It's not your buddy who does real engineering for planes. He has his job because he majored in engineering, not "product blah blah blah"Gotta think positive Woo

there's thinking postively and then there's sprinting into a brick wall that you just sprinted into before and wondered why you did that, but then you get up and do it again
I'll just say what I say to all who think carbon bars give them something aluminum does not (beyond the feeling of living dangerously): "good luck"
I died on one 5 years ago.Are you not familiar with the Boeing 737 Max?
Nah it's usually more in the chest and arm region. The splintered surface will normally leave a really deep gouge across one's chest, sometimes requiring stitches. There's also usually a ton of bruising not caused directly by the carbon shards, but from the resulting crash.Severe butt hurt

better let her driveI tell mine I'm going to Thelma and Louise us at the appropriate time.
What’s the story behind your opinion?Just remember, keep buying bars made out of the only material that regularly fails catastrophically when clamped.
30 years of riding mountainbikes, with others riding more aggressively and abusively than average users, yet not switching out parts every 5 minutes like spAnsrd racers, and watching people get fucked up from broken carbon bars over, and over, and over again.What’s the story behind your opinion?
Real scientists!Some people need to hit the brick wall twice to make sure it wasn’t a fake!
