So, I Took A Punt On Some Bars
« on: January 07, 2015, 08:26 PM »
As some of you know, I was after some Hsin Lung pro bars. I've got them on 3 of my bikes and like the feel of them.

So after a few days of searching, and a few possible offers, I spotted these on the Bay. Now, I should've got the tape measure out and measured my Hsin Lung's, but it was half 10 at night, and I was in bed, so I just hot the BIN button.

Now, the reason I took the chance with these, is that they were only £13 + £7 posted. They arrived within 48 hours, so I unpacked them tonight, and lined them up against the Hsin Lungs, and to be fair, there's not a great deal in it size wise.

I'm going to give them a good buffing at the weekend, get them blinged up.

I know they won't last 5 minutes on a track giving them some decent punishment, but they'll be fine fitted to one of the other bikes for photo shoots etc.

What do you think?
