Handlebars
 
Looking for some good condition take offs. Not bent. Thanks

With shipping won't that take you into the realms of just wandering into a bikeshop?

Wbdisco 02-25-2024 06:40 PM

I suppose it could, but my local bike shop is very overpriced. Twinwalls are $160 new online. This is more for experimenting. I have a sneaking suspicion that my flexxbars are actually causing my carpal tunnel to flare up.

What degree bend are the Flexx Bars?

Wbdisco 02-25-2024 08:39 PM

I am not sure, they were on the bike when I got them.

I had the 12 degree Flexx bars. My wrists were at a weird angle.
Went to the 10 degree bars. Way better.
The degree angle is stamped on the top of the bar, where the round tube is inserted.

My left hand used to fall asleep after 5 miles. Had the carpal tunnel surgery. No issues now.

I found a stamp and it says 14. Not sure if that?s right.

gasgasman 02-26-2024 02:30 PM

Yes. 14 degrees would be for a quad.
No wonder you're having issues.

It?s all starting to make sense. These things kill me when riding standing up. I can?t move my levers in or down.

Went ahead and got some ODI podium flight RC4 and some nice pro taper grips. What a difference, like night and day. No wrist pain and numbness anymore. Usually within 10 minutes I was hurting before, now my wrists are great even at an hour.
