Default Which bars are best?

I bought Tag T2 bars and clamps for my 03 CR125 and today I was roosting around a berm, the front end washed out and when I picked my bike up the clamps were bent, I would like to know of any other bars people are having some luck with.

Really the bars are great, but the clamps I sadly can't say the same about

I have T2 bars. I've had a few small wrecks, as well as some tip-overs in the garage.: So far they've been fine. No major crashes though. I'd just stick with any regular 1 1/8" bar. I have heard of cracking problems with twinwall bars.

Big fan of pro tapers here, if you bend a set of PT's chances are you won't be riding for a while anyway.

Yeah the Rental twin walls are nice, they take a beating. I took out the Cross bar to add a fat pad. CR-high bend. http://www.allthingsmoto.com/photopo....com&password=


Tag also makes good bars. My next set are going to be the Tag CR-high mini's. I might still want another set of twin walls if I dont like the feel of the mini's.
