Gents,

Looking for a good flat DH bar that wont brake the bank. Needs to be strong and wide, not worried about weight.

Any suggestions?

Oversize or standard stem?

If its oversize and totally flat check out these bad boys

I always wanted to try out flat bars but never got around to it, are they going on the marin?

Yes mate, for the Marin, just wanna give it a try.

I tried flats once.
Gave me chronic back ache. Can only put it down to me being stooped over too much.

I guess you could play with stem rise and what not,but i just chucked my risers back on.

Flat bats are good if you have big forks on a dh bike and want to keep over the front end for more control. All depends on the length of your arms of course.
