Gents,

Looking for a good flat DH bar that wont brake the bank. Needs to be strong and wide, not worried about weight.

Any suggestions?

Oversize or standard stem?

I tried flats once.
Gave me chronic back ache. Can only put it down to me being stooped over too much.

I guess you could play with stem rise and what not,but i just chucked my risers back on.

Flat bats are good if you have big forks on a dh bike and want to keep over the front end for more control. All depends on the length of your arms of course.
