Message: [QUOTE="wayneg, post: 727152, member: 24675"] I am short at 5'8" and have cut down my last two sets of bars, mainly because I didn't fit between the trees very easily and got sick of mashing my little fingers into pulp. These were just standard Beta bars (Domino alloy ones with a cross brace) which did seem to be a little bit wider than the Renthals etc. The current set are the standard bars off the Beta '98 Techno which are tapered alloy and (without a cross brace and again made by Domino I think) which were the right size so didn't need to be chopped. If you are thinking of replacing your bars, or if you bend some and need to replace them then the tapered bars are really great and I'd highly recommend them. I've had the current ones on my bike for about a year now, and haven't managed to bend them - this is a great endorsement as I ride like a crash test dummy a lot of the time :) [/QUOTE]
