754 Renthal

[grog]

Anyone use 754 Renthal.

I've got them fitted currently on the Bloo Thing, quite similar to standard bars but slightly less sweep I think. They sweep back a bit too far for me, but I knew this when I borrowed them.

They are comfy for floating around, but I find them a little to close to me when pressing on & can't roll them forwards as then the grips slope downwards towards the centre.

I have 754's on my black K6 Grog, been on for a few years now.  From memory I tried to get close to OE set up in Renthals & 754's seemed to be them.

[Hooli]

here ya go Grog, probably more help than vague descriptions.

[grog]

Thanks for that👍 So basically same except 754 a tad forward. So what is the gain in changing?

[Hooli]

The bit further forward is good in my opinion, but it's not enough for my taste.
I can feel standard bars flex slightly when riding and braking hard too, I don't get that on renthals.

[grog]

Thanks Hooli👍I've never noticed flexing but think I'll get some 754, I like the black look.

[Kiwifruit]

Yes Hooli the original bars flex.  Most noticeably for me is when parked the sidestand is lower than you'd like and you're lifting the bike uphill to vertical.

I only really noticed it getting off a renthaled bike & back onto a standard one, but now that I have done I always feel it.

This is mine, was on her since I bought her, so I don't know any different. They don't flex, they're nice and wide, give great leverage and just enough sweep up and back.

I've tried to Google these but cannot find them, so no idea where they've come from.

How do you find the Quadlock Eric ?

Interesting. Those are handlebars and risers for downhill mountainbikes.

Never really considered the cross over between the two wheeled worlds but they obviously haven't broken so can't be too bad!

Thought so, as the only link I've found for Eaton is mountain biking.

Been on there a while and no issues and I don't mind the taper,  but the engineering brain in me questions if these would be suitable for all loads.

I have a set of original handlebars hanging in the shed that came with the bike, can't be bothered to change them over right now.

Love them, ive got the isolation damper and usb charge head on the BMW, plus the heavy duty suction mount and maghead wireless charger in the car and the bike mount (similar to whats on the 1402 on ..er..the mountain bike.
