bar whore: phoenix handlebars



(via phoenix)
in the world of cars, there is a group of few called "wheel whores". i'm a "bar whore" because i have this strange obsession over handlebar shapes and functionality. the phoenix bars have been in development for quite some time they kicked the rise up off the prototype from 100mm to 110mm. in 'mercuh that a third of an inch or so resulting in a 4.3 inch rise. the production model will use a 4 degree upsweep and 10 degree backsweep giving these bars a defined shape. personally when a a bar is lurking around 4 inches, i think it needs a cross bar to reinforce it. regardless of my opinion, looks like phoenix is pushing some product out.
