Ok Team,im gonna have to replace my bars on the mini dh now,not just cos they are black and i love white kit,but because they are making some nasty creaking/cracking noises and i reckon my next decent sized drop/gap(and due to my new "dont give a crap,just do it" approach the past few months,the gaps and drops are getting bigger and BIGGER)  they will snap and i will end up biting my stem...HARD!!

So im wanting some nice WHITE bars that will cope with DH and Freeriding. I was thinking bout a set of Deity dirty thirty,but after having a go on my mates bike with lower rise bars,i think im gonna stick with 50mm rise badboys! so Any suggestions on some 700mm +  wide bars that are either 40mm or 50mm rise and they must be white and available to the UK,relatively light too and a cool logo wouldnt go amiss either! So let your suggetions roll in...

Funn - either Full On or Full Bore - can't remember which.  The white looks cool on my new felly.

How about Funn Full Bore Bars?

Have you weighted your's by the way? They don't mention the weight...

Nah, I've found the bars for you. Not sure if they come in white though ( but space for your stars )

I dont have them - too wide for my little Meta. Would not get thru the front door anymore!
Thought Bonk is a loud member and needs loud bars...

I am very pleased with my white Holzfeller:

i was looking at the funn bars as they are pretty sweet and the full on comes in a nice wide 750mm,but they only seem to come in 25.4mm clamp size,when i will be looking for 31.8mm. And as for the spank 777's they look nice,but im thinking seeing as they are aimed at all mountain riding and are lightweight then they prob wont put up with the abuse. The Truvavtive ones are the leading bars at the mo,i liked them when i spotted them in the pre 09 kit reports,also they will couple well with the Truvative WHITE stem im planning on getting,my only thoughts are that  they may be a bit narrow,they are only 700mm wide.

Keep the suggestions coming,maybe the perfect bar is out there for me.

Azonic Strip bar?
Not too sure on rise but It'd take a nuke to deform the buggers. And white too ;-)

780mm if memory serves, and cheap. It's taken my landings and my teeth no probs

they claim a weight of 350 grams so not that light if it's true.

What rise you got? And have you weighted those? It says the weight is 260g for 20mm rise bars but they don't sell such rise. only 30 and 50mm.

Also, is it possible you could measure the minimum length what's the closest to the stem you can mount your brakelevers. (see the pic for clearing what I mean) I'm having problem with my current bars that the thickening(OS) goes so far to the sides I can't install my brakelevers as far (inwards) from my grips as I'd like to.

[tequesta]

Did not weigh my new one (40mm rise). My previous black Holzfeller 2009, 700mm width, 50mm rise was 292g according to my kitchen scale. White one will be a little more due to the paint.

took the width along the line in your nice drawing: ~360mm middle to middle of shifter clamps. ~180mm middle of clamp to end of bar.

[bong69uk]

Where did u get them in the 40mm rise? and in your pic is that as far in the bars as u can have ure shifters and brakes or is that just how u have them for ure preferred setting? have u cut them down any in width?

[bong69uk]

Ohh the Azonice World force 09 bars could be a strong contender, nice and wide and look good too.

I bought the bars here in Germany and mounted them as near to the stem as possible (due to my nice big hands). No cutting.
