Street and DJ bar width?

[mobius]

I was thinking about it today im running 26" bars on my chase but i dont ride street or dj much so havent noticed anything bad but i am starting to dj more and ride more street and was wondering what does everyoen else run i was thinking of chopping them down to 25" or so.

Thanks

i run the stock length on my bars, 26". i ride street dirt, trails, and DH and i rind it works well for all.

Most people I know cut em down, it makes barspins, and x-up's easier. 25 is a good place to start, I think mine are at like 24"

Word. I hit my knees on x-ups so I cut mine down to about 23". Makes toboggans and all that crap a little easier.

It also has to do with tire width.

[ioscope]

tire width??

[Pat...]

Yeah! If you have 2.7s and short bars, it will be hard to steer.

2.4 rear 2.1 front, thats the best combination I found that works. I cant run a big tire up front for some reason.

25" is what i run. 26" is nice if youll be doing some DH aswell.
