If you make a 2 piece and 4 piece in the same dimensions, you won't notice a difference other than looks.

Most 4 piece bars usually have more extreme upsweep it seems like. But idk i feel like people buy them just to seem street.

Yeah I heard that too, I think its because they are stiffer than 2 piece so they don't have any flex when you land.

I just got on some 4-piece bars a few weeks ago and I love them. Had always wanted to change things up from the past 10 years of 2-piece bars... haha

I have had 2pairs of 4pc bars in my years of riding and there better on wrist due to higher upsweep. i think its odd that FBM would make 4pc with 2degrees up. but there trying to make them spec friendly for people afraid of change. EMBRACE 4up!!!

4pc bars fucking suck. They break so easily because they're 4pc so they're weak. I had some 4pc bars and they snapped in 2 weeks of me doing roof drops off 7 story buildings. 2pc suck to they only lasted me 3 weeks of the same. 3pc is where its at.
Just kidding. I like the look of 4pc but don't see any with the specs I want. I might just get Big Fours and deal with it.
What's the specs on the Black Flags?

8.625" Rise
29.5" Wide
2 Degrees Up
12 Degrees Back
Good specs, a lil wide for my liking but they are the same up and back as most 2pc and have the look/stiffness of 4pc.
I just love my bennys 4up!
