Upgrading from 620mm to 740mm was simply an amazing change to the bike. RaceFace cleanly packaged their products, included some decals and instructions. Feels great, no flex, no noise. Great price point for rebuilding an older bike to bring it into the new world of MTB. Love it.

Went from a 680mm to a 740mm bar. Love the change!

These bars helped transform my ‘07 Trek 6500 to a pretty aggressive trail bike. These bars along with an Evolve stem (70mm) was a game changer! Added some RaceFace spacers to complete the look! :call_me_hand::skin-tone-3:
