Fasst flexx handlebars

FASST are a great company to deal with. Even from Australia!

I’ve got them on my MTB. Wrist pain was almost stopping me riding. Now I’m recovering from double wrist surgery to try and remedy the pain. 

I’m not terribly sensitive to these types of things but the bars aren’t “game changers” for me, or my issue. 

But no downside. Rigid in the steering plane. Almost certainly take some of the sting out of slap down hits. 

Might be one of those things that I’ll notice more if I take them off. 

Might not have the current issues if I’d been using something like these or the options above for the last 40years…..

Just put the Nexus mounts on the kids 85. Very nice. Would like even softer elastomers. about 26% lighter than a standard mako.

I absolutely love my Flexx bars. I have had the same set for years, they can be rebuilt and are made in America. 

I’d like to see more of this 85…

Like many others I first got a set of flexx bars after breaking my wrist. Now my wrist is fine and I can ride without them but I continue to put them on every bike because of how easy they are to rebuild.

Bending bars gets expensive but the only thing that bends on the flexx bars is one long M8 bolt per side. If you have access to a mill you can even make your own and rebuild your bars after a hard fall for like $1.20.

Hadn't heard of these and just went to their site to check them out..... The bars might work well, but that might be the worst website design I have seen since like 2004. Black text on a fading black background? I literally had to highlight the text so I could read it.
