Is there any discenible advantage (or disadvantage) to using oversize bars on an xc/trail bike ?
Is there less `buzz` or is it purely cosmetic ?

Main advantage is a stiffer bar to stem interface so less flexy,particularly if you pull on the bars when climbing..The ability to filter out"trail buzz "is more to do with the material used.Generally carbon and better grades of aluminium,are better at reducing buzz.2006 Giant XTC
