Post by: Jaymz on July 11, 2011, 07:09 PM: well if they are the copies or the real mccoy, they wont look out of place on your DP i dont reckon, and i imagine they'll certainly be cheaper than DP ladder bars

Post by: BENDYCAT ELEVENTEEN on July 25, 2011, 10:22 AM: I know there are a couple of different company's that did the twin top tube bars

the tube ends seem different - mine have a small rounding to them and a flat top to them - mine doesn't have any knarling to the stem grip point ? - you can see where the bends are in the bars that the tubing has slightly been flattened and you can feel this ?

28" wide
14.2/8" end cap to end cap on top tubes
6.1/2" from top tube to stem grip point (mesured from top/outer point)
4" from bottom of twin tube to outer bar end
2.1/2" inside gap between top twin tubes
1.2kgs in weight
