Bar Questions

Quick question - Will carbon bars creak in an alloy stem. And what would you choose ?

PX nanolight carbon bars 265g:

or KCNC scandium bars 221g:

I use an alloy stem and carbon bars. No creaking there. And as for the bars, the Planet X ones look fabulous, I would definitely go with them!! Although, are you aware that the PX bars are 31.8mm clamp, and the KCNC's are 26.0mm??

The KCNCs can be bought in 31.8mm from Clee cycles. In am swaying towards the PXs despite the lower weight and cost of the KCNCs because they just look so good.
