i thought the easton bars were "Massive 1.125" (1-1/8") diameter clamp area." so they wouldnt fit on stock clamps?

I would go for Renthal 7/8 aluminum bars.

Although I've looked a few sites up and they all make the bars for 1996-2002/4 CR80/85.

I think just some research will probably help you make your decision.

IMHO its worth getting oversize clamps and bars (pro tapers are 1 1/18", as are fat bars, twin walls etc). I've had Azonic twin walls, pro-tapers and renthal fat bars. Over all my favorite is the Pro Tapers but they are all vastly stronger than any 7/8" bar I've tried (renthal, moose, etc).
