Review of the TruVativ Noir WC Flat 580mm 5d Bend 31.8 Carbon:

I was looking for a replacement bar for my older S-Works Stumpjumper that I was rebuilding at repainting. I noticed most of the bars were a bit wider than what originally came on my bike and I didn%u2019t really see a reason to change as I liked the feel of the old bars quiet a bit so this one fit the bill.

It%u2019s a pretty solid bar, light and strong with clean graphics. The mesh in the clamp area seems to help and it will take quite a bit of torque so I wouldn't worry about anything slipping. Actually as far as torque settings go I just went with what was spec%u2019d by my Thomspon stem which was far less than the max listed by the bar and its been very solid for over a year. Also comes with some nice looking solid AL caps which you will need if you are going to install bar ends.
