Long story short, have not ridden actively since 2002.. lost touch with the scene and now i'm back..
HOLY MOLEY, has sh*T changed!!
I see that 4 piece bars(all the rage back then) are now almost extinct...
Anyways i'm trying to get back into this and looking for some advise on one of the thorniest issues for me..
How to decide on what criteria and what make/model of Handlebars to get?
any ideas and suggestions very welcome!!
About ME:
Looking at mainly street riding, some park.. little trails.. bout 90% street, 9% park, 1% trails..
current bike is a Haro 540 AIR, rocking the 4pc Castillo bars..
Went to a skate park last week, by the time all the kids and my fellow riders finished laughing at my bike, I decided to rent one instead of using my own..
Long story short on that up to date rental, within an hour I was back at the level I had been back in 2002... grinding, manuals
Today I got on my trusty haro and after 2 hours, I could barely manual it, much less bunny hop the joint over a curb..
So I'm thinking new age is the way to go!! Must be the new bars, like I said at the park with an hour I was manual'ing longer than I could 2day on my current setup..
