Hi, I'm looking for a new pair of bars for my Orange Five and considering the following:
:arrow: Easton MonkeyLite XC- 150g, strong & light, hi+lo rise
:arrow: Easton MonkeyLite XC MX- 175g, stronger version as I understand, bit heavier, have a degree more sweep, meant more for 4X racing?, lo rise
:arrow: Easton MonkeyLite DH- 225g, stronger still, bit heavy?, hi rise. Are these overkill?
I mainly do XC with a bit of light/med DH thrown in.
Not sure if anyone can help as it's very much a personal choice but it's always good to get someone else's take.

XC to DH - full spectrum really! 225g is still light for a bar, many XC ones weigh more than this. I have a standard monkeybar on the idrive, 250g, which is not bad at all.
If hitting terrain hard, get the kit to do it, and it seems the DH bar is perfect.0
