Stevie Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Ok, so im very new to trials so sorry if anything i say sounds silly.I was wondering which bars would be more suited for me, i currently use the standard Onza flat bars that come on an Onza Blade.What different feeling do riser bars give, and which would be better for a beginner rider or is it just personal preference?One last thing, would i need a different stem or are they pretty universal?Thanks alot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben John-Hynes Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Riser riser riser. ALL the way. They feel so much more comfortable. I've found that flat bars hurt my wrists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Thanks for the reply.Which bars would be suited to a mod? It seems the trial tech ones are a very popular choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems the trial tech ones are a very popular choice.Risers are pretty much more suited to any size trials bike mate.And yes, I think most people agree Trialtech's are the best out there (for mod that is) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Thanks alot guys I'll give Tarty Bikes a ring soon to check out if the trial tech bars fit my stem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben John-Hynes Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 (edited) Thanks alot guys I'll give Tarty Bikes a ring soon to check out if the trial tech bars fit my stem.If it's not a shit tryall stem, then they will fit. You may benefit from bars like Tryall or Monty ones though 'cause they're not so wide. Edited June 26, 2009 by Ben John-Hynes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hdmackay Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Trialtech's must be good for stock too considering when you go on it on Tarty it has a list of like 6 of their sponsored riders who use them... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 My original bars that i have right now are 28.5" wide where as the trial tech riser bars are 29.1", is this going to feel that much different or affect my riding? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
