TOTALLY WORTH IT. Detailed personal review.
MOUNTED: on a Specialized stump jumper 2016REASON: Upgraded bike and Hands started to go numb really bad and fast. Bike shop suggested I get a riser handlebar since i didn't have that problem before with the last bike and had it for 5 years.This one seems like the perfect hight about 18mm difference. I personally don't think you need more than that, If you do need a higher reach then think spacers, handlebar, stem and so forth.LOOKS: what can I say AWESOME carbon look.WEIGHT:Original handlebar 11.5 ozCarbon handlebar 5.9 ozSeems like a minimal difference but wait till you hold both. Jaw dropping. Not the reason why I bought it but is a big plus.Some people said it was very tapered at the end.... not my case. Gear shifters, brakes, seat dropper and grips fit just as factory no issues.WIDTH:Original 750mmNew carbon 730mm perfect for my need.Again I was coming from that size so to me it was perfect. I did feel the original stumpy was really wide and I smacked a few trees when going really close. But that's just me because of what I was used to and this one seems like a perfect fit. ((I went from a 2012 Scott spark full suspension FYI))I think this is a well made product. Haven't had much time to test but only time will tell. For under $40 I think is a steal and an excellent upgrade if needed.I think if I didn't need a raised handlebar I would have never Bought it, but since the swap I've seen many improvements like FIT, LOOKS, HANDLING,

Great, lightweight, affordable introduction to carbon bars
These bars are extremely lightweight (they're carbon), stiff yet much more comfortable with vibrations at speed than aluminum bars (they're carbon), but the extremely low price has me nervous to put them on my trail bike, which takes more abuse than I trust them with (they're carbon). I read lots of bad reviews of cheap, knockoff carbon bars like these (which are fantastic, BTW) and was nervous to break them on actual MTB trails where bars see extreme abuse and crashes and all the real excitement bikes offer. I'm also 6'3 190 lbs, and tend to be a little harder than average on equipment than most, mainly because I'm a bigger dude. For that reason I'm keeping aluminum bars on my trail bike for now while waiting for a good deal on some more high-end carbon bars for that bike. HOWEVER, I have these on my Cross-Check and my girlfriend has them on her Bridge Club, and for super-commuting, gravel road bombing, and light-duty flow trails they are awesome. So light, so comfortable, and just a great value for a carbon bar. These are basically great for all the riding I do that isn't actual trails, and they might even be great for that! If you're lighter and more careful than I am. I also recommend you invest in a torque wrench now if you don't want to invest in handlebars yet.

Why are these not more expensive?
Good value. Appear to be well made. Look great - I opted for the version with minimal graphics. Hard to do an accurate back-to-back test but these bars do feel as if they absorb more of the road shocks than the OEM aluminum Specialized bars. Am very pleased with them. Mounted on a Specialized Tero 5.0 set up as a gravel bike.

So far so good!
I got this handle bar in a 720 length. This replaced my 610 length carbon bar that's lasted me for 15 years. I was a little sceptical because of the price but I really wanted a wider bar especially on the trail. The bar arrived nicely packaged with plenty of bubble wrap. But that was it! No instructions. Nothing to confirm the length and various degrees in rise and sweep. And more importantly, THE LIMITS OF TORQUE WHEN CLAMPING TO THE BAR. I had to refer back to the web site for this info. It would have been nice to have this info with the bar. The bar came scratch and blemish free. It was also slightly thicker in than my old one when looking at the bar ends. The carbon weave patterns look very consistent and no voids noticed. The bar clamp section is textured but I still used carbon grip paste at all clamping points. I've been on a few trail rides and so far so good. No strange noises or visible cracks appearing . I love the 720 length. I feel more in control especially on faster down hill sections . I do notice just a little flex but just barely. I expect this out of a carbon bar. My old Easton carbon bar had about the same. Note : my bike is a hard tail aluminum frame with quality , smooth travel rock shox fork. I'm 51 with a family so I stay away from stupid high risk for crash situations. No big air jumps. I do like to ride technical single track as fast as I can though. It's a Chinese mass produced product. Does that mean it's crap? No. But some crap will fall through the cracks because the quality control might not be as good as USA made. I've got friends that spent alot more on " high end " carbon bars that failed within a year. So it is what it is, just be careful and don't over tighten the clamps.

Looks nice feels iffy. But performs amazing!
Just got my bar in. I ordered the plus 3k matte bar in grey. It’s light as hell and is noticeably different. And the bar looks nice only issue is I ordered the 700mm model but the one I received measured in 722mm and the diameter is a bit wider than 22.2mm. The measurement is off, but i don’t minde the extra 20mm.So far I am giving this a 2 star review even though it looks nice after putting it on my bike and setting it up. I have to say I heard some crackling already just from sitting on the bike. Overall, I do not trust that this bar won’t send me over and snap on me. Willing to change my review upon first ride. Will updateThese Chinese carbon bars are really hit or miss guys.Update 1: these held up for casual and easy trail riding and some downhilling. Definitely worth the 30 bucks
