Posted by: gfjfhj at February 19, 2007 11:00 PMNice bars.... Do u get warranty on them if u cut them down??
Posted by: Sam at February 20, 2007 02:38 AMUmm sigh? when is someone going to make a larger set of bars with UPSWEEP? goddamn, i mean seriously, how many different f-ing slam clones are people going to make? i know its 41 thermal, but i dont care because it still bends.
Posted by: ben at February 20, 2007 07:09 AM- Brandon, Chase and Taj are riding them right now.
- The bars are still under warranty if you cut them down, unless your reason to return them is "I cut them too much".
- The bars have one degree of upsweep where slams have zero. One degree doesn't seem like much but it make a big difference, especially if you are riding them at the ends, uncut.
-If 41 thermal parts bend, send them back. Thats the point. seriously.

Posted by: ben at February 20, 2007 11:35 AMcome on! i run t-1 paul b bars at 28.5 in. wide and they still feel small WE NEED SOME 30 INCHERS OUT THERE! with 2-4 degrees of upsweep they dont even need to be butted just bigger bars would nice.
Posted by: WE NEED BIGGER BARS! at February 20, 2007 12:39 PMslams have 1 degree of upsweep.....exact same geo!
Posted by: AJ at February 20, 2007 07:36 PMApparently your not alowed to by law to make bars wider than a certain length...
That would explain why there aren't any bars 30 inches wide.
Don't take my word for it though.
Take care all.
Posted by: Christian at February 20, 2007 11:29 PMI'm down for 30 inch bars! Bring it Odyssey!
Posted by: Trailsoldier at February 21, 2007 10:27 AMholy hell. 30 inch bars. gi-normous.
for those who complain, Waa! Get some custom built.
thats odd. chase hawk is pretty small. funny seeing him running tall bars. but then im only 5'7" and run 8 inch rise bars
Posted by: asdf at February 21, 2007 07:43 PMthey look amazin, cant wait to get my hands on a pair of them! when they comin out in the uk?
good work.
being tall isnt the reason for having tall/wide bars man, its cause there freakin awesome and prolly let you bunnyhop like 6 inches to a foot higher! oh and everyone know you look cool with them DUH! haha
