So here's the skinny on the Titec H bar:

PROS:

-WIDE. According to spec they're wider than the other ergo bars.

-Very comfy thanks to their geometry.

-Rearward sweep is awesome for getting further behind the seat on steepie drops.

-All the extra stuff going on gives you alot of options for hand positioning during climbs or if your arms are getting pumped.

CONS:

-You will most likely need longer cables/housing/hydro lines for your brakes due to the wierd angle that your levers mount.

-Welds between grip and control section are beefy enough to push your levers far enough away from the grips where you may have to 1 finger them if you have small hands.

-I have no idea where the heck I'd mount shifters if I had any.

All in all, I give these a thumbs up. They definitely feel better than the basic riser I was running and my arms aren't as beat up after a long ride. Mission accomplished! They do take some getting used to though. Particularly since you kinda have to relearn your brake modulation. They're not much heavier than the Ti version, although the Ti version has smoothed welds which will help get your controls a bit closer to your grips.


Bumpin the hell out of an old thread. PP you still around these boards? Are Titecs still the way to go in your opinion? :bang:
