Lets list 'em.

Sunline V1, 19mm or 38mm Rise, 711mm or 745mm Width

are there any others that have a similar rise and width as the Sunlines? I'm not crazy about the grey color, would much rather have black.

 

[ecsnsmb]

Diety Dirty 30 is a great bar too. Just get the V1, its a fantastic bar, I would buy another in a heartbeat. Still light, but suppper durable and really helps get your body in the right position.

 

[jutny]

I have a V1 and DM stem from Sunline already on order, just exploring other options.

Race Face Diabolus DH: 0.5"(~13mm) or 1.5" Rise and 28" (711mm) Wide

 

[rayhaan]

new renthal bars look sweet!

Can I get a "hell yes" for the Deity bars

 

[DownhillR3]

Talked to Sunline yesterday. Told me their V1 19mm rise 745mm won't be in stock again until April 27th! Now from what I see all over the internet, this is becoming one of the most popular bars in the Downhill racing/riding community, yet at the most peak time right before Downhill season, they are out. Wouldn't you think they'd kick up production, they only make a limited amount of products anyways... just my opinion.

To the original post, Truvativ BooBar(31.8mm clamp with 740mm or 780mm length) might be another option.

 

[jonKranked]

Cromag makes flat bars, but they don't appear to be listed on their site.

 

[bballboy388]

Kore Torsion comes in a flat, 20, 35, and 50 degree rise with a 5 degree up sweep and a 9 degree back sweep.

the 9 degree back sweep on those seems a bit off, they feel more like 12 degree. Wasnt sunline coming out with a 760 bar instead of the 744?

hell f-in yes!

Can I get a "hell yes" for the Deity bars

You can get an AMEN! For real though, those bars are sick. I have a pair, and I hear they have a lifetime warranty. Although I am going to start trying shorter ones, cause with wide ones it is harder to whip out and table top for style points. Sounds like I need telescoping handlebars.

Jenson USA and multiple other online retailers have the V1's you're looking for in stock.....

 

[Kanye West]

Spank makes some wide ones too I hear.

Yeah the way that 661/Sunline stocks products is pretty pathetic from what I've seen. It hasn't just been this time either - they historically are out of stock on hotter items for LONG periods of time.

 

[DiRt DeViL]

Kore Torsion comes in a flat, 20, 35, and 50 degree rise with a 5 degree up sweep and a 9 degree back sweep.

And it comes in 800mm, you can eBay them for cheap.

Atomlab Pimplite
250g claimed weight for 750mm 1'' rise bars

Element Technic Nickel Wide Flat Bar
280g claimed weight for 760mm flat bars

Reverse XXL DH Race "fli-bar" FLAT

where can I get Kore flats in the US?

 

[jutny]

This thread has turned out wonderfully. Very good guys, thanks.

If it REALLY comes down to it, I'll have the sunline bars/stem reanodized to match the blackness of my build.

 

[SuspectDevice]

They are distributed through J+B importers. Most bike shops have an account with them.

 

[4130biker]

Not sure if it will fit Jutny's needs, but sunline is coming out with some "different" colors this year. They actually look pretty cool.

 

[PJivan]

transition bikes T-30 and even nuke proof does

I've seen those, a little extreme for my tastes.

I'm being really ghey and trying to build my new rig to look as well as she rides... Black 09 Jedi with full saint and gold accents. Its cool though, the grey sunline bar/stem may actually pop pretty well with the grey and red scheme of the Elka shock.

Yeh, i know. I have too much time/money on my hands.

Could be worse! Let us know how it turns out.

That was just according to their website.

 

[Muttely]

hmm, might pick up some 800mm kore torsions, looks to be about £40 shipped after taxc, damn good!!, will probably end up cuting em down to about 780/775

 

[MinorThreat]

Syncros makes a 790mm (31") in a 20mm rise / 9 deg. sweep. It even looks good:

Haha! It's so wide it doesn't even fit on the page.

 

[gratiflying]

i've got the chromag flat 28s on AM bike and they are a bit under 28 but apparently are no longer available... only the riser OS/OSX from chromag now. in addition to Kore, there is the also the Element Technic flat 760mm bar... available in gunmetal and black for the dude who is looking to colour match...

 

[norbar]

I wonder if the element and reverse bars I posted on the last page are actualy the same. 1g claimed weight differance, flat, same length and very similar looks. I know that reverse uses catalog stuff, don't know about element.

 

[Demomonkey]

I just put this on my bike after moving my 711 V1 to my trail bike.

760mm and weighing in at 304gms which is 16gms heavier than the ano version.

I couldnt quite bring myself to go the purple ano.

 

[Resident Alien]

Truvativ Boobar: 740 or 760mm width; .8 or 1.2" rise. Think the sweep is 7x5

Burgtec Ridewide: 750mm; 20 or 40mm rise. 9x4. They are no longer scandium and weight is up to claimed 320g, which i think is a good thing. Price is a bit high though....

 

[Bicyclist]

Anyone know where to get the Element or Reverse bar in the US from a distributor [aka not CRC]?

Is there a solid bikes distributor in the us? As reverse is their component brand so you may look for it there.

 

[buckoW]

750mm wide Scott bar

 

[Kurt_80]

Massive necro-bump.... but I haven't been able to find the info I'm looking for.

What are the options for 0 rise, decent width bars these days?

So far I've found the Race Face Atlas and Renthal Fat Bar Lites. They're going on a DH/enduro bike (dropped forks already, current bars are 15mm so going to flat bars would help a bit). On that front the Race Face's would be ok (I assume), but I'm a little iffy about the the Renthals. Anyone have any experience on either, or even better, know of any other truly 0 rise bars?

Cheers!

 

[Bikael Molton]

Whisky makes a zero rise, 840mm wide bar.
I dunno anything other than that they exist.

I run high rise aluminum.

 

[djjohnr]

Not sure about current 0 rise bars, but RaceFace makes a -10mm 50mm direct mount stem.

 

[Floor Tom]

My wife uses the RF ones, 10mm rise or whatever they are. She isn't the heaviest and doesn't crash that much but they have been fine for her and it helps keep the bars at a reasonable height (she's only 5'3")

 

[englertracing]

Well, my friend has some rf garbage carbon bars.
Clearcoat flaking off... looks like shit.
I dont trust RF carbon after seeing 3 sixC crank arms broken.

Renthal carbon bars are rather uncomfortable....

 

[Kurt_80]

Just for clarity, I'm talking about alloy bars only.
Don't trust carbon bars entirely....

 

[Kurt_80]

Not sure about current 0 rise bars, but RaceFace makes a -10mm 50mm direct mount stem.

Do you mean this thing?

 

[Sandwich]

There are a lot of drop direct mount stems out there. I'll send you one if you're desperate. Back in the day everybody wanted to get low, now we're back to 2" rise.

I have RF atlas flat bars on my trail bike and kore torsion 20mm rise on my DH. Either of those should suffice if you can find them.
