Flexx Handlebar E-MTB

Flexx MTB Handlebars for your mountain bike absorb shock and vibration, isolating your upper body from abuse, allowing you to ride longer with more control.

proper link here

says there's a money back guarantee if you don't like them so what have you got to lose?

I have the fastway bars on my Honda CR250. makes a big difference in hand numbness and arm pump. should be good on a MTB also. On my Trek 9.7 Rail I have the 35mm OneUp carbon bars that have some flex. Helps a little, probably not as much as the fastway bars

And I thought motorsport was expensive!

I am in the same boat, had the flexx bars on my KTM enduro moto, and currently have the one up 35mm on my Levo, considering the flexx on the Levo, but boy is that alot of $$$

Can someone translate their marketing speak for me? What does this mean?

“Flexx Handlebars are precise in the steering path, yet forgiving in the load path of the suspension, yielding un compromised control and abuse reduction.”?

also what is ethically sourced carbon fibre? Do they have free range carbon fibre chicks running around?

actually can someone also explain what costs $425? Because it surely can’t be handlebars? ?

I position myself so a good part of my weight is on the saddle, it allows me to relax my upper body.
When i need to i put more weight on my bar but i do not have any issue so just the confort of a regular
carbon bar is plenty for me. Raise your bar or cut it to raise your head and shoulder is my suggestion.
Maybe you can pull your saddle forward. Just doing a bit of these 3 things helps. Also a shorter stem.

Bars have two load directions in normal use. Rotation around the head set and up/down along the fork/headset vector. The marketroids are basically saying the bars are stiff yet a bit flexible.
I do wish people would get over carbon fibre. It’s a bit of cloth and some resin FFS.

I ordered a set today, I will post a review after a couple of weeks

Have had them for several years on both mtb and emtb bikes and love them. Flexx even upgraded my bar to their new model for no cost. Fatique and numbness reduction well worth the cost.
