Hi
I got these bars from MK
(http://i733.photobucket.com/albums/ww333/paulbarlow_album/2013-09-01211550_zps4e359557.jpg)
but can't seem to find make and model? Was told them may be DK? They look a bit like these

thanks :daumenhoch:

Elf Blast Bars
-
Not sure if they're blast bars (the knurling looks too far apart) but they certainly look like em'. Pm Andy 'Rooski' bet he'd be able to tell ya. :daumenhoch:
I've got an Elf XX and a Elf Pro f&f waiting to be built so i'd be interested in these if you ever thinking about getting rid. ;)
-
Cheers custardlips.
I am getting rid of them as I won't be able to surf on them :LolLolLolLol:
-
What size are they Paul. ???
-
26 inch wide. 8 inch rise

These look like specialized bars. The cross bar on them is narrower and lower then blast bars.
-
I reckon they're Blasts - the Specialized one's have fookin huge weep holes where thesen's don't, the knurling's straight on the Specialized ones and the overhang for the grip part of the bars is greater on the Specializeds than these. Wouldn't judge em too much on the larger knurling as stuff changed a fair bit when these bars were in production.
Could be totally wrong though :LolLolLolLol:

JT is selling these on ebay ,he was at rad so im guessing they are these

Don't think they are ELF Blast Bars, cross bar looks too low compared to my old ones...

-
They're not ELF bars, i got a set of these off Jai about 3 years ago at MK and were told they were SE bars of some kind? ???
They're a bit smaller than normal sized bars
-
There not the specialised ones ss the knerling on them go all the way across.

Finally worked out what these bars are.......I think :LolLolLolLol:
They're Dirt Master Magarita bars from 1998 - Shiners distro'd em. They did a 4-piece version called Hoochie Bars as well. How sad am I?

For what its worth... these are some elf bars I sold to the US recently
