I bent my xc bars on my DH rig at towoomba.

I am 100kgs and 190 cm or so and i was just wondering if any of the bigger guys had any experince with the titec hell bent bars, not the 7075 ones, the 6061 jobbies. (bank account is a bit tight)

do you guys think that the 6061 hell bents will stand up to the abuse or should i save my pennies and get the 7075.

thanks

the 7075 ones are still under $100 .. definatly save up a bit more and get those.

the El Norte is the way to go.. I've got some and love them to death.

plus titec stuff comes knock rated which i think is a 5 year warrenty? not 100% sure on that though..

my experiences with titec stuff has only ever been positive..

yeah i know the 7075 will stand up to the abuse. but it was more a question of; if i could get away with the 6061 or would i just end up bending them

thanks

Eastern EA 70 or 50, or the Truvativ holtzfeller or husselfelt bars.
