Title: Peregrine Bars....
Post by: GavinDavis on March 06, 2013, 01:55 PM
Ive had these bars for some time now, waiting to go on one of my builds but there is something ive just noticed (that I didnt when I bought them lol)

The top bar is quite a bit higher than the freestyle version of "Q" bars.  I have tried to do a bit of research and the only thing I can vaguely find is that these were the "race" version??

Does anyone know anything more than I do as im not all that certain they will be right for my build now?

Here are my bars:

Here is an original ad that I came across, albeit for a blummin lever but they are in the pic:

When I had mine new, I remember Hotwheels saying there were two variants of the peregrine bars. What they were called I can not remember. I did have same as you tho.. They could have been cheaper but i've slept a lot since. Sorry.

So does anyone know anything else about them? I really dont think I will use them now as they are the race variant and I will need freestyle....doh!

They might end up in the for sale section later....  :daumenhoch:
