Has anyone tried Flexx bars from Fasstco? If so, what do you think of them?

I have them, and love them. They really reduce vibration down to nothing, and they take the sting out of all the hard hits. I had a noticeable improvement on less fatige on the upper body as well. They make a big difference.

Billy what is your final set up with them? Did you try the different levels of hardness with the bumpers?

I ended up with the hardest ones they make. Being a bigger guy, the softer ones moved too much under hard braking with bumps. The ones I have now don't move under braking conditions, but still absorb the big hits nicely.

I want some as the idea makes sence-however thats some serious cash to lay out on some bars.

I BOUGHT A PAIR A FEW WEEKS AGO.CANT WAIT TO USE THEM.GLAD TO HERE THAT SOMEONE ELSE LIKES THEM.YEAH IT SOUNDS LIKE A LOT OF MONEY BUT IN THE LONG RUN IF IT PREVENTS YOU FROM CRASHING(LESS FATIGUE)WELL WORTH IT.

I tried a set mounted on a KTM. Fine bike, by the way...
I did not much care for the bars. I am sure I could get used to the movement, but I did not like it much. I would not pay my money for them.
But, I would be thrilled to play with a set. I think the owner of this bike had the soft rubber in them. It might be great with something more firm.

I didn't care for the softer inserts either, if you get too much movement on the little stuff, they move a lot on the bigger stuff. With three different compounds of inserts and being able to adjust the hardness of each insert, you can dial it in pretty good.
marcus, that's my set up Mister :thumb:, but yeah, it can get pricey!
