Gt Cabon Expert stem & bar

Kevyb

Hi There,

I'm building up a new bike with this frame. What bar and stem size would you recommend. I will be fitting rock shox revelation dual position xx 150 mm forks

Thanks

what do you intend to ride

if your a mile mucher xc rider/racer then skinny bars and a longer stem

for trail riding go for a wider bar around 680-710 and a 70-90mm stem

for more aggressive riding am/dwon hill wide bars 730-200mm and a short stem 40-50mm

i prefare a shorter stem and wider bars.. i have 50mm stem and 710 bars on my hardtail.
50 mm stem and 735 bars on my trail bike (full susser)
and a 45 mm stem and 745 bars on my dh/park bike...

Ok thanks for that, I might try a 70mm with a low rise bar. I'll build it with my 100mm stem to start with and see how it feels.
